Stefano Baghino commented on MESOS-946:
---------------------------------------

[~wickman] Thanks for creating the placeholder. Do you think it would be 
possible to also add the fact that the package is a placeholder in the 
description shown when searching on the CLI? Being able to find the package and 
then getting an error when trying to install it can be quite confusing:

{code}
> pip search mesos | grep 0.19.0 && pip install mesos==0.19.0
mesos (0.19.0)                      - python bindings for Apache Mesos
Collecting mesos==0.19.0
  Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement mesos==0.19.0 (from 
versions: )
No matching distribution found for mesos==0.19.0
{code}

> setup.py should be able to create publishable sdist

> Since setup.py uses the build root for compiler flags the sdist produced by 
> "python src/python/setup.py sdist" can't be used outside the machine that 
> built mesos, uploaded to PyPI, or used with a local PyPI mirror. Aurora's 
> Python executor should be installable by `pip` and depend only on the 
> presence of mesos headers and shared libraries, but since the produced sdist 
> is unusable this currently isn't possible.
