Timothy St. Clair edited comment on MESOS-1776 at 9/12/14 4:48 PM: ------------------------------------------------------------------- --with-package= is the resolved mechanics for the situation described, and is consistent. If you wanted to, we could add an option such as '--disable-bundled=soft|hard' Where soft fails over to bundled if dependency is not found, while hard just fails when not found. Also --without-package should probably yield a meaningful error message. was (Author: tstclair): --with-package= is the resolved mechanics for the situation described, and is consistent.

This is later treated as prefix under which to search for the > package. > For example, with *--without-protobuf*, the script will search for *protoc* > under *no/bin* and obviously fail. I would propose to get rid of these > prefixes entirely and instead search in default locations. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
