Patrick Hunt commented on ZOOKEEPER-1604:
-----------------------------------------
Hi [~eyang], I didn't mean to exclude anyone. Based on my reading of the recent
comments it seemed like the questions had been answered, and we had reached
consensus, e.g. Ralph's "I've come around on this issue" and comments from
Chris and others. A patch had been posted (not by me) and no negative comments
have come in in over six months.
I also feel that your comments re Cloudera are unfair to me. My main goal here
was just to clean things up and move forward. However you're entitled to your
opinion.
Additionally this is consistent with what a number of other components (Hadoop)
have done over time. Our packaging was created before Bigtop existed, a number
of issues have been reported but not resolved, and it seemed like it was
causing more problems than it solved. e.g. Chris's comment "ZOOKEEPER-2275 is
another new incoming issue where the presence of broken rpm packaging code in
the build has caused confusion."
EOD we just don't have community available to support packaging, we barely have
enough folks to address issues found with the service itself, and while there
may have been "interest" there unfortunately hasn't been enough "action".
Wouldn't it make more sense to focus on the Bigtop packaging rather than
duplicate it here, poorly?
