Amareshwari Sriramadasu commented on HADOOP-2019:
-------------------------------------------------

Apache commons compress (http://commons.apache.org/sandbox/compress/apidocs/) 
has TarArchive, TarInputStream etc. classes. But the project is a sandbox 
component and no releases are available. So shall we create a snapshot and use 
it ?

> DistributedFileCache should support .tgz files in addition to jars and zip 
> files
