I believe the message

"python-tornado breaks : python-zmq (< 17) but 16.0.2-2+b1 is to be
installed"

does not mean python-tornado *needs* a particular version of python-zmq
but it *breaks* this older version. This might be due to a bug in
python-zmq versions < 17 . Or maybe it is actually something from either
package's recommends that causes the problem.
