Konstantin Boudnik commented on BIGTOP-1423:
--------------------------------------------

I believe exact purpose of the toolchain is to deliver the development tools, 
is it not? We are installing all the packages that are required for the build: 
java, maven, etc. Groovy is an SDK - just like java, hence I am adding it to 
the toolchain.

As for using packages: are you saying that if I need to develop some Groovy 
smoke tests I'd need to the following:
 - run toolchain to configure my dev env.
 - build groovy package
 - install groovy package
 - develop my tests
Whereas I can do just that:
 - run toolchain to configure my dev env
 - develop my tests

Let me turn the question around: what's your concern?

> Hence, let's add it.
