Yes, this seems reasonable. I'm quite willing to see the patch I prepared as a bit of a nasty hack. I prepared standalone packaging for cppzmq a while ago before I realised that it collided with headers already in libzmq3-dev. The packaging can be found here: https://salsa.debian.org/chronitis/cppzmq - it's pretty trivial since it's header only. The package should be more or less ready to upload if wanted (but probably should be moved out of my salsa namespace). However, the maintainer point is a good one. I'm coming at ZMQ in general as a downstream user and I'm not a domain expert; it would be very good if the packaging was maintained or co-maintained by someone who knows the details of ZMQ a bit better. > Regards, > Laszlo/GCS
