I'm in dependency hell here, I flat out cannot install this group of
packages. I'm trying to install mailscanner and it will not budge until
I resolve this case.  

If there is some order to install them, I'd appreciate knowing what it
is? Otherwise, I'm stuck. I'm running karmic and everything else is
pretty solid. Here's the error:
dpkg -i libcompress-zlib-perl_2.015-1_all.deb
(Reading database ... 284056 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to replace libcompress-zlib-perl 2.015-1 (using
libcompress-zlib-perl_2.015-1_all.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement libcompress-zlib-perl ...
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of
libcompress-zlib-perl:
 libcompress-zlib-perl depends on libio-compress-zlib-perl (>= 2.015);
however:
  Package libio-compress-zlib-perl is not installed.
 libcompress-zlib-perl depends on libio-compress-zlib-perl (<< 2.015.~);
however:
  Package libio-compress-zlib-perl is not installed.
dpkg: error processing libcompress-zlib-perl (--install):
 dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Processing triggers for man-db ...
Errors were encountered while processing:
 libcompress-zlib-perl

I'm really confused as both libio-compress-zlib-perl packages have the
same title, both the (<< 2.015 and the >+2.015

Are they different or does one get installed before the other?? Thanks!
Ric
