> Thrift 0.12.0 Source Distribution (.tar.gz) Contains Hardlinks - Extract Fails
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: THRIFT-4874
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-4874
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Build Process
> Affects Versions: 0.12.0
> Reporter: Daniel Jewell
> Assignee: James E. King III
> Priority: Blocker
>
> Hello!
> The source release tarball of Thrift contains hardlinks - which makes it
> impossible to extract on a platform where you cannot create hardlinks (e.g.
> on a non-root Android device). (e.g. the archive was not created with
> --hard-dereference)
> I discovered this as a knock-on effect of trying to build Apache Arrow C++ on
> Android (in Termux)... The build fails because the Thrift tarball can't be
> extracted because of the hardlinks.
> Best,
> -Daniel
