Assuming it's right; Due to the way versioning works, the DMO version *is* the highest version. The epoch number (2:) is what makes it so. The reason the epoch number gets added is to *ensure* DMO versions are higher than the other repos and will, therefore, be installed without having to alter any settings in the apt* universe. To install the ZM version use the 'force' option of apt* to specify the package you want installed. This may be easier using Synaptic, where specifying a particular version can be done picking from a drop-down list.
