Hi,
Given no one has objected to the previous thread, I am calling a vote.
I'm not sure if I've missed the vote here so
So let's vote on adopting the following set of platforms:
* Latest released CentOS (currently 6.0)
=0. I've heard of problems related to glibc and other RHEL quirks
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7156
The alternative would be the 5.7+ branches, which are what people tend
to run in production
* Latest released Ubuntu LTS (currently 10.04)
+1, even if the first thing you have to do on a 10.04 installation is
delete the hostname -> loopback mapping in /etc/hosts
* Latest released OpenSUSE (currently 11.4)
+1 if someone wants to do it
* Latest released Fedora (currently 15)
I'm a -1 on this because it's too bleeding edge, it's not LTS, and you
will end up debugging fedora problems.
This means we can't check in any patch that will break any of these OSes.
It also means we can't upgrade a component of BigTop if that component
cannot be built or tested on all of these OSes.
This does not preclude anyone to add support for or maintain any other
platform, but this would not be a requirement for BigTop.
The vote is open for 72 hours, and is open to anyone on the committers
or mentors list at http://incubator.apache.org/projects/bigtop.html.
Thanks!
