Christopher Tubbs commented on ACCUMULO-2956:
---------------------------------------------
[~busbey] The bootstrap_config.sh script is neither new nor experimental in
1.6.0. It was added to 1.5.0 in ACCUMULO-1071. Improvements were made in
ACCUMULO-1395 that made it do smarter things, but the feature was in 1.5.0, and
it was never considered "experimental". It was just a feature. The reason the
examples were preserved in 1.6.0 was that it might break expectations if people
were using them. That's the same argument for preserving it as is between 1.6.0
and 1.6.1.
> bootstrap_config.sh relies on GNU getopt for long opts, which doesn't work in
> OS X

> Key: ACCUMULO-2956
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-2956
> Project: Accumulo
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.6.0
> Reporter: Christopher Tubbs
> Fix For: 1.6.1, 1.7.0
>
>
> Discovered while working on ACCUMULO-2646, bootstrap_config.sh's command line
> options don't work without GNU getopt. This means that this script doesn't
> work on OS X or BSD systems without modification.
> The bootstrap_config.sh script should be modified to detect the OS and fall
> back to a compatible argument parsing when not in Linux. The long opts should
> be preserved in Linux, since these were available in Accumulo 1.6.0.
