Josh Elser commented on ACCUMULO-702:
-------------------------------------
Yes/no. I'm worried that because you included installing thrift in a general
readme, people will think that they have to install thrift before they can
install Accumulo, which is not true.
I believe the general practice that is followed is that when the thrift
auto-gen'd code needs to be changed, the developer making the change, commits
the auto-gen'd java files, and does not force other developers/users to have to
generate the java classes themselves. Assuming I'm not completely off base,
there is no need for any user (who wants to use/build Accumulo) to install
thrift. For the good majority of developers, they probably don't need to
install thrift either.
Overall, I think we've identified a couple of changes outside the scope of this
ticket (for which I'll be making a new ticket(s)), but I believe the changes
you added to the Ubuntu readme are misleading to someone who is new to the
project. Could you better clarify when you would actually need to install
thrift (and boost, flex, bison, etc if they are indeed necessary)?
