----------------------------------------------
Summary: Remove toolchain Kudu support
Key: IMPALA-7515
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-7515
Project: IMPALA
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: Impala 3.1.0
Reporter: Thomas Tauber-Marshall
IMPALA-7499 is adding support for pulling Kudu in from CDH. For now, to limit
impact on developers, we've kept the ability to build with the toolchain Kudu
since the CDH Kudu is provided for fewer OSes than the toolchain. In particular
the CDH Kudu is not available for Ubuntu 14, which is still used by many devs.
Eventually, we should remove the toolchain Kudu support as it adds complexity
to the build system. A good time to do this would be around EOL for Ubuntu 14,
currently scheduled for April 2019
Note that even after removing toolchain Kudu support, it will be possible to
build and run Impala on OSes for which CDH tarballs are not provided in two
ways:
- setting KUDU_IS_SUPPORTED=false, which will build a non-functional Kudu
client stub Impala can be linked against
- setting KUDU_CLIENT_DIR/KUDU_BUILD_DIR to point to a local build of Kudu
