Kamil Domański commented on MESOS-1776:
---------------------------------------
[~tstclair], I'd like some feedback on whether the ability to provide a prefix
for unbundled dependencies is necessary. The current method for providing the
prefix is a bit unusual and conflicts with canonical usage of *\-\-with-X* and
*\-\-without-X* flags.
A workaround is possible by checking for the variables in question being equal
to "*no*" and changing their values to "*/usr*" in such cases. However, I see
removal of prefixing altogether as a preferred solution.
Either way, I'd like to take care of this as as soon as I'm pointed in the
right direction.

> Key: MESOS-1776
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-1776
> Project: Mesos
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: build
> Affects Versions: 0.20.0
> Reporter: Kamil Domański
> Labels: build
>
> When disabling a particular bundled dependency with *--without-PACKAGE*, the
> build scripts of both Mesos and libprocess will set a corresponding variable
> to "no". 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.
