I am hoping to upgrade from Ubuntu 14.04 to 16.04. In order to check that I could still do Impala development work, I bootstrapped a development environment on a 16.04 cloud instance. The script that worked for me is here:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/IMPALA/Bootstrapping+an+Impala+Development+Environment+From+Scratch While it might be useful to have this as a Jenkins job, I have no plans to create such a job. It might be a bit cleaner to get this done in the chef repo in https://github.com/awleblang/impala-setup, but I don't plan to do that at this time.
