jsvc needs to be removed from hdfs packaging
--------------------------------------------
Key: HDFS-2962
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-2962
Project: Hadoop HDFS
Issue Type: Bug
Components: data-node, security
Affects Versions: 0.23.0
Reporter: Mingjie Lai
Fix For: 0.23.1
As we discussed at HDFS-2303:
... hit the same problem today when I started to try secured DN of 0.23. The
shipped jsvc (commons-daemon-1.0.3) with 0.23 doesn't work on my local ubuntu
11.10 (as described by atm, with libcap.2 instead of 1), nor our cluster centos
5 (without any libcap).
The problem doesn't happen to 0.20.205 (what we use now) since
commons-daemon-1.0.2 jsvc binary doesn't link to any libcap
(http://archive.apache.org/dist/commons/daemon/binaries/1.0.2/linux/commons-daemon-1.0.2-bin-linux-${os-arch}.tar.gz)
So the current way - downloading jsvc binary - won't work for 0.23+ secured DN.
...
jsvc shouldn't be bundled with hadoop. Instead, it should be installed by user.
