------------------------------
I'm +1 then. Let me commit in a day or so. Maybe Ted Dunning will grace us w/
an opinion if we give him a chance. Good on you AA.
> Hbase should use a HADOOP_HOME environment variable if available.

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-3465
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 0.90.0
> Reporter: Ted Dunning
> Assignee: Alejandro Abdelnur
> Attachments: a1-HBASE-3465.patch

>
> I have been burned a few times lately while developing code by having the
> make sure that the hadoop jar in hbase/lib is exactly correct. In my own
> deployment, there are actually 3 jars and a native library to keep in sync
> that hbase shouldn't have to know about explicitly. A similar problem arises
> when using stock hbase with CDH3 because of the security patches changing the
> wire protocol.
> All of these problems could be avoided by not assuming that the hadoop
> library is in the local directory. Moreover, I think it might be possible to
> assemble the distribution such that the compile time hadoop dependency is in
> a cognate directory to lib and is referenced using a default value for
> HADOOP_HOME.
> Does anybody have any violent antipathies to such a change?
