Giridharan Kesavan commented on BIGTOP-12:
------------------------------------------

Giri, great progress. A couple of questions still:

bq. do you plan to work on Debian side?
I can start workin on the debian pkg in the next couple of days.

bq. you reference HCatalog 0.4.0, but I don't see it anywhere at Apache – where 
are you getting the tarballs from?
I used the locally build hcatalog tar based on 0.4 branch. Since Hcatalog-359 
and Hcatalog-342 are commited the next release of hcatalog can be packaged 
using bigtop.
  
bq. why is there (cd build) at the very end of the do-component-build ?
bq. the man page reads like a Hive man page, not an hcatalog one
Let me upload another patch by fixing the above two comments.

bq. given that HCatalog is meant to be a better Hive metastore I'm surprised 
not to see any init.d scripts, what gives?

Hcatalog is the client to the hive metatstore. hcatalog requires hive-metastore 
to be up and running and uses the hive configs to talk to the metatstore.
