Subject: Third-party Jars in MapReduce job




Hello,

I'm working on a MapReduce job that requires some third-party jars. I know that the devs are working on [https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1622] HADOOP-1622, which should make this problem easy, but for now (and for backwards compatibility), how is this best accomplished?

I've tried adding the 3rd party jars to lib/ in my job-jar, so that the structure looks like so:
META-INF
us
webmail
hadoop
mapred
*
lib
third-party-one.jar
third-party-two.jar

.. but no luck. The job fails saying that it can't find classes that are contained in the third party jars.

How are other users accomplishing this?
