Chris Nauroth commented on HDFS-8346:
-------------------------------------
IMO, this is not worthwhile for a backport to branch-2.7 or branch-2.6. There
is some debate about the actual utility of libwebhdfs, and we don't have any
evidence that it's being used by anyone. If someone else wants to request a
backport though, then I wouldn't object.
> libwebhdfs build fails during link due to unresolved external symbols.
