I have the last version of libzzip installed on Tiger PPC. I haven't updated it to the new version yet, as for Tiger, I tend to lag behind a bit on routinely updating things for no good reason as there are often errors to work out with new software.

$ port -v installed libzzip
Warning: port definitions are more than two weeks old, consider updating them by running 'port selfupdate'.
The following ports are currently installed:
  libzzip @0.13.62_1 (active) platform='darwin 8' archs='ppc' date='2017-02-08T14:12:49-0800'

Don't install it from a separate download site like that -- that will not (easily) work with MacPorts.

I don't understand why sudo port -v install libzzip would say Port libzzip not found. First thing I would think of would be to try syncing again sudo port sync and see if it magically reappears...

The manually installed version is ancient. It may fail configure tests.

What version of MacPorts do you have installed? How long since you synced the Portfiles (i.e. did a port sync)?

Summary: (10.4, mplayer) Dependency 'libzzip' not foundlibzzip not found

The port is not found because the portfile contains a syntax error on Snow Leopard and earlier, introduced in [9cf8dbd237d440b1faccd0d39ddc44816ed54ec6/macports-ports].

Status: acceptedclosed

In b101c1902d9c4e9da434938488bba506a16bba53/macports-ports:

libzzip: Fix syntax error on Snow Leopard and earlier

Also ensure the OS is Darwin before we check its version number.
