Kapil Arya commented on MESOS-5608:
-----------------------------------
Hi Hari,
The numbered suffixes are a well-known scheme to track the packaging software.
However, I do agree that Mesosphere suffix are a little more complicated to
figure out. I would recommend using the
http://open.mesosphere.com/downloads/mesos/ page to learn about the exact
filenames. Also, if you can use yum/apt-get, then the instructions provided at
https://mesosphere.com/downloads/ would allow you to update/install mesos
packages without having to know the exact version suffix.
We are thinking/planning for a better package build infrastructure that we can
potentially share with the community. I'll post the updated once I have any.

> Apache Pre-Compiled Tarballs
> ----------------------------
>
> Key: MESOS-5608
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-5608
> Project: Mesos
> Issue Type: Task
> Reporter: Hari Sekhon
> Priority: Minor
>
> Request for pre-compiled tarballs on the apache download mirrors and
> apache.archive.org for older versions.
> I used to compile this myself but nowadays I use Docker builds a lot and
> don't want to be forced to have lots of dev build tooling bloating my docker
> images to build this from source.
> Most other apache projects provide both the source tarball as well as
> precompiled tarball.
> I've used Mesosphere's downloads as they provide rpms + debs but the problem
> is their URLs have non-deterministric build suffixes appended to each version
> so that I cannot build or update across versions without hardcoding the
> almost random build suffixes for every minor version change as I can't
> predict the build suffixes.
> Normal apache tarballs with consistent names seems like something common to
> Apache projects that the Mesos project is currently missing.
> Thanks
> Hari
