this is your problem. until you clear out that 1 package you will not
be able to install anything.
It refers to libapache-mod-perl. I've tried more than one but nothing
happened. Shows earlier tries.

I'm curious why it refers you to debian-apache unless there is some
apache specific stuff going on here in the install. I would guess this
is definitely a packaging bug. Can you unpack the .deb and locate the
.info file anywhere? maybe the install scripts are looking in the
wrong place.
I've installed it from source code, there is no deb packages for mod_evasive.
