Yup, it's a big one. That's why there's an entry in /usr/ports/UPDATING:

20170220:
   AFFECTS: devel/libevent2
   AUTHOR: jbeich@FreeBSD.org

   libevent2 has been renamed back to libevent as the default version.
   If you manage out of tree ports make sure to run the following:

     # pkg set -n libevent2:libevent
     # pkg set -o devel/libevent2:devel/libevent

Not surprising since that is the port that won't install on your system.

Instead:

# pkg delete -f libevent2

and then recompile devel/libevent and any ports that depend on it.
