Comment:
Fedora and RHEL have a different idea on what major version should be
called `libevent`. Fedora packages `libevent-2.0.x` as `libevent`, and it
looks like Centos packages `libevent-1.x.x`. Support for the latter is
deprecated, so the build being broken is expected. Perhaps the message
could be improved but that's an orthogonal issue.
