Doug Cutting updated HADOOP-851:
--------------------------------
Status: Open (was: Patch Available)
I am able to build this without problem on Ubuntu Edgy.
Since liblzo2 isn't normally installed, I'm hesitant to include this in
libhadoop.so, since I think libhadoop.so would then no longer link unless folks
have liblzo2 installed. (This is different from zlib, which is normally
installed on most systems.) It's a pain to build a separate library, but I
don't see an alternative.
Also, can you please add a unit test? This should be a no-op when the native
code isn't available. This could be a simple addition to
TestSequenceFile#testSequenceFile, having it test another codec.
