André Kelpe commented on HADOOP-10397:
--------------------------------------
Right now hadoop ships with one set of native libs which are for linux 32bit.
All I propose is switching to linux 64bit. That will cover almost all use cases
and you don't have to build multiple tarballs. Make the one version you ship
useful for your biggest user group makes sense to me.
> No 64-bit native lib in Hadoop releases

> Key: HADOOP-10397
> 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.
