Yes, but changing these ports' library dependencies from zmq to zmq22 makes them all fail to install now if zmq was already installed. So anyone with these ports installed will encounter this problem the next time they upgrade or reinstall (which will be immediately if we increase the revision, as we should do):

Error: Unable to upgrade port: Can't install zmq22 because conflicting ports are installed: zmq
$
zmq, zmq20 and zmq22 should be made to install files in different places and to not conflict with one another. That is what the port naming convention of having a version number suffix means. This is in contrast to the foo / foo-devel naming convention which means the ports conflict.

Yes, which caused the portindex on the server to fail:

There is also a zmq20 port. Please decide what category(ies) zmq, zmq20 and zmq22 belong in, and put them all in them.
Also, the new zmq port that was added claims to be version 3.2.0 but actually installs 3.2.0-rc1. The version line should reflect the actual version of software installed.
Both the new zmq port and the new zmq22 port were "svn add"ed to the repository. They should have been "svn copy"ed from the existing port, so that the four-year-long history of the port is preserved.
