npm install zmq fails

I tried npm install zmq and I got:

Here's the pastebin of that npm-debug.log:

Does anybody have any idea of what's happening? Seems like error in the compilation or so. As you see, my nodejs is version 7.x, not an old one. And NPM is 4.x, should work, right?

What worked for me to avoid the Error: `make` failed with exit code: 2 error after running sudo apt-get install libzmq3-dev along with making sure I had installed all of the packages from the other answers:

From the docs:

To use your system's libzmq (if it has been installed and development headers are available):

npm install zeromq@5 --zmq-external

installing on Unix/Mac:

First install pkg-config and the ZeroMQ library.

This module is compatible with ZeroMQ versions 2, 3 and 4. The installation process varies by platform, but headers are mandatory. Most Linux distributions provide these headers with -devel packages like zeromq-devel or zeromq3-devel. Homebrew for OS X provides versions 4 and 3 with packages zeromq and zeromq3, respectively. A Chris Lea PPA is available for Debian-like users who want a version newer than currently provided by their distribution

For windows

First install Visual Studio and either Node.js or io.js.

Ensure you're building zmq from a conservative location on disk, one without unusual characters or spaces, for example somewhere like: C:\sources\myproject.

Installing the ZeroMQ library is optional and not required on Windows. We recommend running npm install and node executable commands from a github for windows shell or similar environment.

Try to:

sudo apt-get install build-essential checkinstall

then, relaunch npm install.

If it fails again, you can try to install node-gyp globally:

npm install -g node-gyp
