Last time I checked, this was particular to "mvn compile" and would not occur for other kinds of builds from the root of the source tree like "mvn test" or "mvn package". This is a Maven behavior that is unavoidable unless we pull hadoop-maven-plugins out into its own project separate from the Hadoop source tree, which is something the community already decided against. We can only document the behavior.
Thanks for the explanation, I've added a comment to HADOOP-9279 to that effect. What's the best recommended target for someone to use when starting from scratch, test?
Please feel free to file a new issue if you'd like to see this clarified in BUILDING.txt. We'd welcome a patch if you want to provide one. Thanks!
Yes, I'll do that. -- Alan Burlison --
