Till Toenshoff created MESOS-1137:
-------------------------------------
Summary: Add FAQ linked within docs/getting-started.md
Key: MESOS-1137
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-1137
Project: Mesos
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: documentation
Reporter: Till Toenshoff
Priority: Trivial
Experience shows that there are a few very common questions that pop up for
people that start playing with mesos.
So I would like to propose adding some kind of FAQ to our documentation.
Specifically for OSX, here are some points that I collected over the time. As
there will most likely be more, starting this ticket as a collection before
adding an FAQ might be good to find out if it made sense having it.
h4.Mesos requires automake < 1.14 due to incompatibility issues
with the 'subdir-objects' option.
[insert link to jira ticket here]
For installing automake 1.13.4 via homebrew:
{{brew versions automake}}
{quote}
1.14 git checkout 14a1fa8 /usr/local/Library/Formula/automake.rb
1.13.4 git checkout 029cdc3 /usr/local/Library/Formula/automake.rb
1.13.3 git checkout 9c7cf36 /usr/local/Library/Formula/automake.rb
1.13.2 git checkout 7f584b0 /usr/local/Library/Formula/automake.rb
1.13.1 git checkout 1e5eb62 /usr/local/Library/Formula/automake.rb
1.13 git checkout 2754bd4 /usr/local/Library/Formula/automake.rb
[…]

To be on the safe side, we may now uninstall any automake versions that was
previously installed using homebrew.
{{brew uninstall automake}}
You may install 1.13.4. To do so, git-checkout the homebrew formula for that
specific version manually.
{{cd /usr/local/Library/Formula/}}
{{git checkout 029cdc3 /usr/local/Library/Formula/automake.rb}}
Now we can simply install automake, the manually chosen version will be used
instead of the most recent one.
{{brew install automake}}
h4.Could not link test program to Python.
[insert link to jira ticket here]
You may have installed a Python version that did not come with OSX by default
(e.g. via MacPorts or Homebrew). If that is the case, make sure the version
used is 2.7.3. Anything more recent up until and including 2.7.6 will cause
this problem.
*Note:* This does not apply for the default Python that is delivered by Apple
(currently 2.7.5). Apple has fixed this problem in their distribution.
