Roman Shaposhnik commented on HADOOP-6255:
------------------------------------------

I have two points to add to the discussion:
   1. I'm wondering whether it would be useful to slice it a bit more thinly. 
IOW, introducing the notion of these extra 
       top level targets available for packaging:
              hadoop-core
              hadoop-client
              hadoop-daemon
              hadoop-devel
              hadoop-javadoc
     

    2. As for configs, I'd like to point out an example that Debian has 
established with their packaging of .20. Basically
        they created one package per node type 
(http://packages.qa.debian.org/h/hadoop.html) plus one package common
        among all the daemons:
              hadoop-daemons-common 
              hadoop-jobtrackerd
              hadoop-tasktrackerd
              hadoop-datanoded
              hadoop-namenoded
              hadoop-secondarynamenoded
 
         The packages themselves are pretty slim -- containing only hooks to 
make daemons plug into the service management
         system (init.d in Debian's case, but one would imagine Solaris/SMF or 
anything like that also being an option for us). 
         I also would tend to believe that these could be reasonable packages 
to be used for splitting the configs appropriately.
