Hello, I just downloaded ZeroMQ 4.1.2 tarball from http://zeromq.org/intro:get-the-software
and when I build it, it give me a libzmq.so.5.0.0 while I was expected a libzmq.so.4.1.2
Is it normal?
I found the following code in configure.ac file : 

# Changes:
#
# ZeroMQ versions prior to 2.1.0 use 0:0:0 (undefined)
# ZeroMQ versions 2.1.x: 1:0:0 (ABI version 1)
# ZeroMQ version 3.0: 2:0:0 (ABI version 2)
# ZeroMQ version 3.1: 3:0:0 (ABI version 3)
# ZeroMQ version 4.0: 4:0:0 (ABI version 4)
# ZeroMQ version 4.1: 5:0:0 (ABI version 5)
#
# libzmq -version-info current:revision:age
LTVER="5:0:0"


And I'm guessing this is where the number come from.

Can anyone confirm it's the expected version number or I'm doing something wrong?

Thanks in advance.
