pyenv install: 3.x BUILD FAILED (Ubuntu 20.04 using python-build 20180424)

These are the relevant parts of your log:

Python build finished successfully!
The necessary bits to build these optional modules were not found:
_bz2                  _curses_panel         _dbm
_gdbm                 _lzma                 _sqlite3
_tkinter              _uuid                 zlib
To find the necessary bits, look in setup.py in detect_modules() for the module's name.


The following modules found by detect_modules() in setup.py, have been
built by the Makefile instead, as configured by the Setup files:
_abc                  atexit                pwd
time


Failed to build these modules:
_ctypes               _curses
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<frozen zipimport>", line 520, in _get_decompress_func
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'zlib'

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<frozen zipimport>", line 568, in _get_data
  File "<frozen zipimport>", line 523, in _get_decompress_func
zipimport.ZipImportError: can't decompress data; zlib not available

It looks like you’re missing the dependencies that pyenv requires for building python. Since you’re using Ubuntu, run the following:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install \
    build-essential \
    curl \
    libbz2-dev \
    libffi-dev \
    liblzma-dev \
    libncursesw5-dev \
    libreadline-dev \
    libsqlite3-dev \
    libssl-dev \
    libxml2-dev \
    libxmlsec1-dev \
    llvm \
    make \
    tk-dev \
    wget \
    xz-utils \
    zlib1g-dev

Then try again.
