I have been trying to install ZeroRPC on Ubuntu. I have already installed ZeroMQ but while installing ZeroRPC these errors are showing up. I'm basically tying to run a python script in background from node.js which sends JSON object and receives JSON from the python code. Also the python code must always be running in the backend.

npm ERR! Make sure you have the latest version of node.js and npm installed.

npm ERR! Tell the author that this fails on your system:

npm ERR! You can get information on how to open an issue for this project with:
npm ERR! npm bugs msgpack
npm ERR! Or if that isn't available, you can get their info via:
npm ERR! npm owner ls msgpack
npm ERR! There is likely additional logging output above.

Failing to install this and stuck at it.
The error is about failing to build msgpack, not about zerorpc. Try following what the error message is telling you to do. This will help you to build msgpack successfully.
