André Kelpe commented on HADOOP-10397:
--------------------------------------
This is a duplicate of https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9911
Alejandro: Fair enough, that you don't want to build multiple tarballs, but
wouldn't it make sense to build the one and only tarball for 64bit linux? After
all that is the deployment target of hadoop anyway, so having that instead of
the 32bit version makes a lot more sense to me.
> No 64-bit native lib in Hadoop releases

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-10397
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Zhijie Shen
>
> Recently, I had a chance to talk to a Hadoop user, who complained there's no
> 64-bit native lib in Hadaoop releases, and it was user unfriendly to make
> them download all the dependenies to build 64-bit themselves.
> Hence I checked the recent two releases, 2.2 and 2.3, whose native lib are
> both ELF 32-bit LSB shared objects. I'm not aware of the reason why we don't
> release 64-bit, but I'd like to open the ticket to tackle this issue given we
> didn't before.
