Till Toenshoff created MESOS-9933:
-------------------------------------
Summary: Installed boost is preferred over bundled version.
Key: MESOS-9933
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-9933
Project: Mesos
Issue Type: Bug
Components: build
Affects Versions: 1.5.4
Reporter: Till Toenshoff
When building Mesos 1.5.x, I noticed my local build failing with;
{noformat}
../../../3rdparty/libprocess/../stout/include/stout/json.hpp:270:7: error: no
matching constructor for initialization of 'internal::Variant' (aka
'variant<boost::recursive_wrapper<Null>, boost::recursive_wrapper<String>,
boost::recursive_wrapper<Number>, boost::recursive_wrapper<Object>,
boost::recursive_wrapper<Array>, boost::recursive_wrapper<Boolean> >')
: internal::Variant(value) {}
^ ~~~~~
{noformat}
It turned out that I had a more recent boost version installed on my system and
instead of using the bundled variant, the autotools build preferred my
installed version, leading to the above error. The installed version was in
{{/usr/local/include}}. After removing the installed variant, the build
continued, avoiding the error.
We should try to make sure bundled dependencies are generally preferred over
installed variants.
