             Summary: Simplify impala-python virtualenv requirements files
                 Key: IMPALA-10606
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-10606
             Project: IMPALA
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Infrastructure
    Affects Versions: Impala 4.0
            Reporter: Joe McDonnell
            Assignee: Joe McDonnell


The impala-python virtualenv currently has complicated logic that can do 
multiple rounds of pip installs depending on whether the toolchain has been 
bootstrapped. For example, the packages in compile-requirements.txt are only 
installed if the toolchain GCC has been installed. The Kudu python client is 
only installed if Kudu has been downloaded. This was a workaround because 
bootstrap_toolchain.py required the impala-python virtualenv. The different 
stages allowed the basics to be installed, then bootstrap_toolchain.py can run, 
then the rest can be installed.

The bootstrap_toolchain.py script no longer requires the impala-python 
virtualenv, so there is no need for such a complicated setup. The things 
bootstrapping the impala-python virtualenv can assume that the toolchain 
compiler is present. This would allow the requirements to be consolidated into 
a main requirements file that includes both compiled and non-compiled packages. 
A consolidated file makes it easier to update dependency versions.
