So your are replacing libcompress-zlib-perl 2.015-1 with
libcompress-zlib-perl 2.015-1 (i.e.: with itself) which doesn't seem
helpful but shouldn't hurt either.

libcompress-zlib-perl depends on libio-compress-zlib-perl, so
installing libio-compress-zlib-perl should be all you need.

The whole dependency chain:
* libcompress-zlib-perl depends on libio-compress-zlib-perl and
  libio-compress-base-perl
* libio-compress-zlib-perl depends on libcompress-raw-zlib-perl and
  libio-compress-base-perl
* libio-compress-base-perl and libcompress-raw-zlib-perl don't depend
  on other *compress* packages
