Robert Joseph Evans commented on HADOOP-8527:
---------------------------------------------
I may be misremembering things, but I thought that on some OS/JDK versions that
this was needed. I think MacOS X was one of these, but I am not certain of
this. Before removing it, we really should check with [~tucu00] who wrote most
of the pom stuff to see if he remembers anything about that.
Again I could be totally wrong about this and if so please removing extra
dependencies is always a good thing in my book.
> Dont use JDK6 tools as dependency

> Key: HADOOP-8527
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8527
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: build
> Affects Versions: 0.23.0, 2.0.0-alpha, 3.0.0
> Reporter: Radim Kolar
> Attachments: hadoop-jdk.tools.txt
>
>
> In hadoop-project/pom.xml there is dependency on jdk.tools/jdk.tools/1.6 with
> system scope. This dependency breaks maven-assembly jar-with-dependencies
> because it tries to find artifact which does not exists in maven repo.
> It should not be needed. if hadoop is build with JRE, then compile fails.
> Adding dependency on jdk.tools does not improve situation.
