Josh Elser commented on ACCUMULO-3338:
--------------------------------------
bq. Why did this commit strip useful comments from the template
A "close" comment followed immediately with a new "open" adds no value
whatsoever in my opinion. That is why I removed the "close" comments.
bq. Especially since the bootstrap_config.sh script explicitly looks for some
of them, but was not also modified?
I was not aware that comments were of any significance in generating the actual
configs. I'm not going to feel bad for missing that, but thank you for bringing
it to my attention.
bq. they seem to map to a very specific 3rd party packaging
Any packaging would be considered "very specific" since it's the only packaging
that would be writing to such a location. These locations will ensure that
Accumulo, out of the box with the *example* configurations, can run on top of a
Hortonworks installation. Unless you can present some case where there are
other jars that happen to also match these regexs, there is no risk.
Again, these are *example* configurations which really aren't meant for
production use. Users shouldn't be using these configs outside of testing and
have custom configuration files which have a minimal set of classpath entries
for their specific system.
