0) 要是下面的错误你都碰到了。。说明你开发环境没搞好，用下面这个命令吧。
yum groupinstall "Development Libraries"
1) 报错： "[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.codehaus.mojo:make-maven-plugin:1.0-beta-1:autoreconf (autoreconf) on project hadoop-yarn-server-nodemanager:
autoreconf command returned an exit value != 0. Aborting build; see debug output for more information. -> [Help 1]"
这个是因为编译的时候带了 native 参数，但是没装autotool。Centos下。
yum install autoconf
yum install automake
yum install libtool <---这个里面有 autoreconf
还是不行就 -P-cbuild 编译吧，别用native了。
2) Build fails with "[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.codehaus.mojo:exec-maven-plugin:1.2:exec (generate-sources) onproject hadoop-yarn-api: Command

没装 protoc,见前面一篇文章，去Google下吧。
http://protobuf.googlecode.com/files/protobuf-2.4.1.tar.gz

不要以root身份执行编译！。。换身份，重来吧。
