Sorry but I still don't get it. As I understand, aptitude appears to
say that python-zmq with version *less than* 17 is needed?

That aside, python-tornado and python-zmq neither depends nor conflicts
with one another. It may be different for Stretch, though.

# both tornado and zmq is not currently installed
~$ dpkg -l python-tornado python-zmq

So, where exactly python-zmq enters the picture, I don't know.
