[yocto] nodejs project including zeromq fails to build with yocto

[Jon Ove Storhaug]

Hi,

I have a nodejs project which is including zeromq. I have made a simple
version of this project here: https://gitlab.com/jostor/my-npm-pkg.git
I am building for raspberry pi3. This is what I do:
devtool add https://gitlab.com/jostor/my-npm-pkg.git
devtool build my-npm-pkg

This fails with this output:
ERROR: my-npm-pkg-1.0.0+git999-r0 do_compile: Function failed: do_compile
(log file is located at

If I instead of building this with yocto, are using npm install, it will
build without failing.
Can anyone help me with this? Thanks in advance for your help!
