redis from source #33

Open runningman84 opened 9 years ago

runningman84 commented 9 years ago

Right now this cookbook uses a redis recipe which builds redis from source. Why is that?

Every modern linux distribution like ubuntu, centos contains a redis package. Using the default package would allow to use the security patches of the distribution and reduce the install complexity.
