How to install 0MQ on Ubuntu 16.04?

Question

I am confused with all the packages apt-cache outputs:

$ apt-cache search libzmq
libzmq-dbg - lightweight messaging kernel (debugging symbols)
libzmq-dev - lightweight messaging kernel (development files)
libzmq-java - ZeroMQ Java bindings (jzmq)
libzmq-java-doc - Documentation for ZeroMQ Java bindings (jzmq)
libzmq-jni - ZeroMQ Java bindings (jzmq)
libzmq1 - lightweight messaging kernel (shared library)
libzmq3-dev - lightweight messaging kernel (development files)
libzmq5 - lightweight messaging kernel (shared library)
libzmq5-dbg - lightweight messaging kernel (debugging symbols)
libzmqpp-dev - High-level C++ bindings for zeromq3 - development files
libzmqpp3 - High-level C++ bindings for zeromq3

libzmq5 is for 0MQ 4.1 stable. So I just install libzmq5 libzmq5-dbg? The names are quite confusing. The package description doesn't help at all.

If I would like to install 0MQ 4.1, do I have to also install libzmq-dbg and libzmq-dev?

Answer 1

1. 从他们的站点下载最新的稳定版本，目前是zeromq-4.2.1.tar.gz，并解压文件。
2. 确保您安装了他们需要的软件包。
3. 安装，checkinstall因为它有助于稍后删除 ZMQ。

4. 配置、制作、安装、保存以deb备后用（或不，由您决定）。

   wget https://github.com/zeromq/libzmq/releases/download/v4.2.1/zeromq-4.2.1.tar.gz
   tar -xvzf zeromq-4.2.1.tar.gz
   cd zeromq-4.2.1/
   
   sudo apt-get install libtool pkg-config build-essential autoconf automake uuid-dev
   sudo apt-get install checkinstall
   
   ./configure
   make
   sudo checkinstall
   sudo ldconfig
   

使用checkinstall 进行安装会生成一个zeromq_4.2.1-1_amd64.deb可用于删除软件包的文件。这是通过sudo dpkg -r zeromq.
