["Neil Conway (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-3501?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14962620#comment-14962620 ] 

Neil Conway commented on MESOS-3501:
------------------------------------

I'm not sure it is a great idea to add links to RPMs of unclear provenance to the docs.

At minimum, I think we should clarify the error message to state the required version of libevent.
