Pkgconfig seems to assume that you want to have the whole build system installed at once. It therefore recommends having zlib listed in requires.private
Emitting the flag of zlib makes downstream packages required to have zlib installed to compile gatreamer-audio (i hit this a while back, don't know where)
I'm not sure if we can just remove zlib from the PKGconfig all together.
