Greg Mann commented on MESOS-3501:
----------------------------------
I like Neil's idea of updating the configure error message to note that
libevent2 is required, I think this may be enough to guide the user in the
right direction. I also have a ticket open to add the {{--enable-libevent}}
flag to the "Configuration" docs, so we can link to the libevent documentation
there as well.
