Gents,
What is the best way to determine the particular version of a BigTop
package? A command for this would be very useful. This particular use
case involves trying out the Oozie component according to the Running
Various BigTop Components
<https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/BIGTOP/Running+various+Bigtop+components>
wiki page. The instructions for Oozie appear to be out of date, and the
Oozie website <http://oozie.apache.org> has different configurations for
different versions.
It seems that the Oozie instructions on that page are particularly out
of date.

I assume you are referring to an installed package
On a RPM based GNU/Linux distribution:
rpm -qi <package name>
rpm -qf <file or directory>
Note that you can also use yum (yum info, yum list).
for deb based distributions, I don't have one handy right now, but the
following link should help you in that regard:
