Konstantin Boudnik commented on BIGTOP-1494:
--------------------------------------------

Shouldn't be done before we get rid of make

> Cleanup packages.gradle to just read from a gradle data structure

>             Project: Bigtop
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: build
>    Affects Versions: 0.8.0

>  Seems confusing to have a {{.mk}} file which is mostly just a bunch of 
> variable declarations, which is then parsed as a CSV, simply for the sake of 
> guiding the {{packages.gradle}} file .  
> Can we be more idiomatic to gradle and either eliminate {{bigtop.mk}} by 
> making it into a native gradle data structure (its really just an array,  and 
> we can  declare in gradle.settings) , so that the {{readBOM}} function is 
> easier to follow ?
> I think it is an entry point to understanding bigtop's build system so we 
> should try to simplify it as much as possible to make it maximally easy for 
> people to understand how bigtop's gradle packaging system works.
