Konstantin Boudnik commented on BIGTOP-1577:
--------------------------------------------
Absolutely makes sense. What we have in the build right now was an attempt to
- get us to the new platform fast for its benefits
- learn this new platform in the process
Thus the current way of handling execs isn't the best for sure and can and
should be improved.
> refactor our Gradle packaging build to get rid of direct exec's

>
> Most of the use of exec tasks (e.g. for tar'ing/file manipulation/etc) can be
> wrapped into a native Gradle way of accomplishing the same thing. The rest
> are OS specific (rpmbuild, createrepo, etc.) and need to be made flexible
> enough so that the action can at least happen in a container.
