I have already fixed it with this command:
export VCPKG_FORCE_SYSTEM_BINARIES=1

version 3.3 is working for me, but...
Same issue here on Rocky9 with 3.4 I think. This is Rocky running on HyperV, so x86.

I am trying to install on arm64 Pi 5 and running into similar compiler issues ... using node 20.18.1

I have tried it with export VCPKG_FORCE_SYSTEM_BINARIES=1 but it did not work.

Upgrading the zeromq version in the package.json file from 5.3.1 to current 6.3.0 worked for me. Maybe someone can test this out.
