Actually, that means
"zlib1g-dev needs zlib1g, epoch 1, version 1.1.3, Debian
release 5 to install. However, the only available zlib1g is
epoch 1, versino 1.1.3, Debian release 9."
Somehow you got a newer version of zlib1g than is in potato. You
should manually retrieve the potato version of zlib1g and use dpkg
--force-downgrade to correct it.
