ASF GitHub Bot commented on FLINK-2268: --------------------------------------- Github user EronWright commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/4636 In certain environments today, the Hadoop dependencies are actually duplicated on the classpath, i.e. in the Flink dist jar and also via the local installed Hadoop (when something like `HADOOP_HOME` is set). After this change, will having Hadoop on the classpath (not in the dist jar) be sufficient? I think so, just confirming. > Provide Flink binary release without Hadoop > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: FLINK-2268 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-2268 > Project: Flink > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Build System > Reporter: Robert Metzger > Assignee: Aljoscha Krettek > > Currently, all Flink releases ship with Hadoop 2.3.0 binaries. > The big Hadoop distributions are usually not relying on vanilla Hadoop > releases, but on custom patched versions. > To provide the best user experience, we should offer a Flink binary that uses > the Hadoop jars provided by the user (=hadoop distribution) -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
