--------------------------------------
Summary: Remove zipped dependency files from flink-python
Key: FLINK-36035
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-36035
Project: Flink
Issue Type: Technical Debt
Components: API / Python
Reporter: Grace Grimwood
There are zipped versions of Py4J and Cloudpickle stored in version control for
use with PyFlink (as part of the build and also to use with the shell). It
looks like they were put there because of issues with them not being auto-added
to the PYTHONPATH, but this issue can be fixed without needing zipped copies of
the libraries to be present locally.
It would be ideal to avoid storing these zip files in version control because
git cannot parse them (they're treated as binaries) and they can also pose a
security risk. I believe this can be done without altering anything user-facing
in flink-python.
