Duo Zhang commented on HBASE-6189:
----------------------------------
We just need a documentation update here? No?
> Snappy build instructions are out of date
> -----------------------------------------
>
> Key: HBASE-6189
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-6189
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: build, documentation, Performance
> Affects Versions: 0.92.1, 0.94.0, 0.95.2
> Reporter: Dave Revell
> Assignee: Sean Busbey
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 3.0.0-alpha-1
>
>
> In the ref guide (http://hbase.apache.org/book.html#build.snappy), it says to
> build snappy by passing -Dsnappy. Something's wrong here, because:
> 1. this causes the build to fail because the hadoop-snappy tar artifact can't
> be found by maven
> 2. the snappy classes are already included in hadoop 1.0, so using the snappy
> profile is unnecessary
> It would be great if someone who knows when/why to use the snappy profile
> could fix the instructions (and fix the POM if necessary).
