jemalloc error making redis on centos 6.4

[ShmuHones]

I am setting up a new, dedicated, centos 6.4 system with redis. I have installed redis many times, but have never hit this issue (and have never been on centos 6.4 before).

cd redis-2.6.16
sudo make install

error:

zmalloc.h:50:31: error: jemalloc/jemalloc.h: No such file or directory
zmalloc.h:55:2: error: #error "Newer version of jemalloc required"

I also tried redis 2.6.7 and have the same issue.

I have dug all over and can find no path forward.

You might need to install jemalloc. I found this : http://download.redis.io/redis-stable/deps/jemalloc/INSTALL

I am guessing you don't have it installed. Jemalloc is available here: http://www.canonware.com/jemalloc/download.html

Redis comes with its own bundled jemalloc version, it does not use any
installed version.

Make sure your archive includes the deps directory and inside that the
jemalloc directory.

From some reasons, one need to first compile the jemalloc under deps and only then the sudo make in the reds root directory works. I think the makefile should be updated to compile the jemalloc
