/usr/lib/libmesos-1.2.0.so: libcurl-nss.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Hello,
I'm under debian 8 and I have just upgraded to mesos 1.2.
Then mesos failed to start.
In /var/log/syslog I got the following error:

java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: /usr/lib/libmesos-1.2.0.so: libcurl-nss.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Installing libcurl4-nss-dev fix the problem.
It's a problem that seems already covered by #48

I have created a fresh pull request (#103) as the previous one got some conflicts.

I don't believe you actually need libcurl4-nss-dev. Instead I think you need libcurl3-nss.

Despite the confusing name, this package is what provides libcurl-nss.so.4:

$ dpkg -L libcurl3-nss | grep libcurl-nss.so.4
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcurl-nss.so.4.3.0
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcurl-nss.so.4

The -dev package you identified also works, but that's just because it happens to depend on libcurl3-nss. I don't believe the development headers are actually necessary.

Yes, you are right, that's much better.
I have updated pull request according #104

FYI I've talked with @kapilsla; the build script is being updated to not depend on libcurl-nss for debian packages anymore. That was an error. The upcoming 1.7.0 Mesos package should depend on libcurl-openssl and have the proper dependencies.
