[HOD] build file requires exact python version
----------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-3023
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-3023
Project: Hadoop Core
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: build
Reporter: Nigel Daley
Assignee: Vinod Kumar Vavilapalli
To run the HOD pyunit tests, the build file checks that an exact python version
is present:
+ <condition property="python.versionmatched">
+ <!--- Currently check for only 2.5.1 -->
+ <equals arg1="${hodtest.pythonVersion}" arg2="Python 2.5.1" />
+ </condition>
This is too restrictive (we have 2.5.2 on our Solaris build machine). I
suggest that you don't check the python version and instead issue a warning
message if the pyunit test fail stating that python 2.5.1 or great is required
(and optionally showing them what version they tried to use).
