Michael Weiser commented on BIGTOP-1670:
----------------------------------------

That's exactly the reason why I made the use of trocla an optional 
functionality that is disabled by default. Only after 
hadoop::common_hdfs::generate_secrets has been explicitly set to true all of 
this is necessary. If not, the secret can and must be supplied using 
hadoop::common_hdfs::hadoop_http_authentication_signature_secret as with all 
the other secrets. We could even have an insecure default value in the code for 
it, if we wanted (I wouldn't). So puppet apply will still work if you provide 
the password e.g. via hiera. Should I try to more clearly reflect that default 
behaviour in the README?

Also, I am actively trying to get trocla and puppet-module-trocla packages into 
Debian. They already have all the dependencies as binary packages so that the 
whole installation process comes down to "apt-get install 
puppet-module-duritong-trocla".
