Tried to use jepsen 0.1.9 with CentOS on GCP, getting following error:

@aphyr , I can submit a PR with the fix which installs required packages for CentOS.

Hi @ttyusupov! Jepsen only supports centos insofar as folks occasionally contribute fixes; the platform I use for everything is Debian Jessie, so... just as a headsup, you may hit these sorts of issues often going forwards. Happy to take PRs adding Centos packages you think would be helpful for general Jepsen tests though!

Hi @aphyr , @Leviathan1995 , sure, got it. I've submitted a PR - https://github.com/jepsen-io/jepsen/pull/274, it turned out that gcc-c++ is also required. Please note the question about versioning in PR.
