Problem: cmake does not build and install manpages

[Vaelatern]

On release tag 4.2.2, building on Linux, I can't complete a build in CMake due to a lack of ZeroMQConfig.cmake.in

Build log snippet follows:

-- Checking whether TIPC is supported
CMake Error: File /builddir/zeromq-4.2.2/ZeroMQConfig.cmake.in does not exist.
CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-3.8/Modules/CMakePackageConfigHelpers.cmake:312 (configure_file):

Call Stack (most recent call first):

-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

There were files missing for the make dist tarball for CMake, that has been fixed since.

For 4.2.2 please either use the full repository tarball: https://github.com/zeromq/libzmq/archive/v4.2.2.tar.gz or git clone and checkout the tag.

Given you are on Linux, note we also build packages for most distros/architectures that are ready to use: https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/network:messaging:zeromq:release-stable

This is not installed in a ./configure make setup, but is installed in a cmake build. Yet if I build via cmake, files such as the man pages don't get installed. Maybe this should be: Problem: Builds install different files.

Docs are installed in PATH/doc/zmq, you need to make sure to have the build dependencies, like Python and asciidoc

Ah yes they are not manpages, it installs the HTML versions

Could you please send a PR to enable manpages generation and installation in CMake too?

Also Problem: make install doesn't install cmake build files.

Sadly my cmake knowledge is very limited, but I can give it a shot.

Wow I let this slide. My cmake knowledge is still limited, but I'll try to at least install the cmake build files from the Makefile, if that's doable.
