Hi All, We have some updates regarding the binary RPM build/release process for Mesos.
Here are some important bullet points: * Jira: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-7981 * The RPM packages are now built using a jenkins job [1] on the Apache CI. * The build scripts are part of the Mesos source tree (support/packaging). * Packages are distributed using bintray [2]. * Currently, we are using the mesos org under bintray. Once we have more confidence in the packages, we'll move under the apache org to benefit from the superior resource limits. Here are the steps to install the CentOS 7 packages from bintray: *$* cat > /tmp/bintray-mesos-el.repo <<EOF #bintray-mesos-el - packages by mesos from Bintray [bintray-mesos-el] name=bintray-mesos-el baseurl=https://dl.bintray.com/mesos/el/7/x86_64 gpgcheck=0 repo_gpgcheck=0 enabled=1 EOF *$* sudo mv /tmp/bintray-mesos-el.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/bintray-mesos-el.repo *$* sudo yum update *$* sudo yum install mesos To start, we have released 1.4.0 packages in the hope to get some feedback from the community before releasing rpms for other supported version. Future work: * Release RC packages in bintray.com/mesos/el-testing repo. * Release (rotating) nightly builds in bintray.com/mesos/el-unstable repo. * Create/release debian/ubuntu packages with the help from community members who are already publishing such packages.
