We use our own packaging of flume on top of CDH(versions vary as we have a few hadoop clusters), without any problems.

Most of flume apart from the HDFS/HBase sink is independent of any hadoop distribution. You *might* need to recompile with a different hadoop profile(we have just been using the default). Perhaps someone from cloudera can comment on this.

Thanks Alexander.

So, in the interim would installing the dependencies for Flume 1.2 from CDH 4.1(see below) and un-tarring the 1.3 Flume tarball, be a reasonable alternative? Did we change any version on which flume-ng was dependent on when moving from 1.2 to 1.3?

With this, I would look to install the packages adduser, hadoop-hdfs and bigtop-utils and then subsequently, use the 1.3 tarball

$ apt-cache depends flume-ng
flume-ng
  Depends: adduser
  Depends: hadoop-hdfs
  Depends: bigtop-utils

Should be in the first quarter 2013, according to the previous release cycles.
