Anthony Molinaro commented on THRIFT-844:
-----------------------------------------

Instant releases don't work for me because the version of thrift I need will 
not have the patches I need to have php, the php extension, and erlang 
installed.  Several of those patches I've actually had commited, but until 
cassandra ups their version I'm stuck with what I have.  When the cassandra 
version is updated I will try to use the instant release to see it it works for 
me.

As for where erlang things end up on x86_64, I don't totally remember the 
issue.  I seem to recall that something was causing the erlang libs to end up 
in the wrong place for one of my early erlang packages.  It might have been 
that I tried to make an architecture non-specific package for some pure erlang, 
but that installed in /usr/lib so wouldn't be found by erlang when installed on 
x86_64 (this is probably more a fault of the packagers of erlang, there is 
probably some way to have it work so that libraries can be found in both 
/usr/lib64/erlang and /usr/lib/erlang).  Yeah, that must have been it, since I 
know and have used the command line switch to change libdir.

>             Project: Thrift
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 0.4, 0.5

> Though the [Build 
> Requirements|http://wiki.apache.org/thrift/ThriftRequirements] state that 
> autoconf 2.59+ is required (even though 2.60+ is listed as recommended), and 
> the configure.ac has a AC_PREREQ of 2.59, macros which require 2.60+ are 
> being used in the configure.ac.  This makes building SVN Thrift impossible on 
> autoconf 2.59, the latest stable in CentOS 5.5.
> AC_PREREQ and the wiki should be updated to reflect the actual build 
> requirements, or the macros which require the later version should be removed.
