unfortunately 1.x has much higher dependencies than most enterprise/long
term linux release contains eg: rhel 6.5 or ubuntu lts. this means
without replacing system library it's not possible to use 1.x (or at
least it's much more complicated to install parallel two different lib
set) and not just system lib but all other libs which are depend on
these system libs. this is not acceptable in a large (few hundreds)
server set deployment.
