Hi Laszlo, Based on the zeromq download page[1] the actual stable release is 4.0.5, that's the reason I've made the watch patch. Reviewing the github link you brought and comparing it with the [2] NEWS file seems to me that it's the newer version of the same library. Is the v4 different of v2? if this is true, I am willing to help to package the v4. But to me it seems it's just a newer version of the current lib that is in the archive. Let me know if I am missing something between the two versions. IMO If v2 and v4 are different and have different purposes it would be great specify the version in the package description because right now is confusing.
