----------------------------------
Summary: Get rid of jar duplicates in release
Key: SOLR-11087
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-11087
Project: Solr
Issue Type: Sub-task
Components: Build
Reporter: Jan Høydahl
Sub task of SOLR-6806
The {{dist/}} folder contains many duplicate jar files, totalling 10,5M:
{noformat}
4,6M ./dist/solr-core-6.6.0.jar (WEB-INF/lib)
1,2M ./dist/solr-solrj-6.6.0.jar (WEB-INF/lib)
4,7M ./dist/solrj-lib/* (WEB-INF/lib and server/lib/ext)
{noformat}
The rest of the files in dist/ are contrib jars and test-framework.
To weed out the duplicates and save 10,5M, we can simply add a
{{dist/README.md}} file listing what jar files are located where. The file
could also contain a bash one-liner to copy them to the dist folder. Another
possibility is to ship the binary release tarball with symlinks in the dist
folder, and advise people to use {{cp -RL dist mydist}} which will make a copy
with the real files. Downside is that this won't work for ZIP archives that do
not preserve symlinks, and neither on Windows.
