It looks like you are running RHEL4. WHy don't you just uninstall the perl module like this:
rpm -e perl-Compress-Zlib if it won't do that use: rpm -e --nodeps perl-Compress-Zlib And then reinstall the package with up2date -i perl-Compress-Zlib or if you have the dag wieers repo: yum install perl-Compress-Zlib That way you stay compatible with the rest of your installation. If you do want to use cpan (which is a good idea sometimes) then use cpan2rpm for installing perl modules. Again that will keep your package db in good order.
