Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-13363: ----------------------------------------- wire-level backward compatibility is a core feature of protobuf, I'm not worried there. What I am worried about is compile-compat, as that is what broke hadoop, hbase, etc, everything using protobuf 2.4. Google's internal build process is a clean, unified build of everything, so they don't have to worry about source level compatibliity > Upgrade protobuf from 2.5.0 to something newer > ---------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-13363 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-13363 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: build > Affects Versions: 3.0.0-alpha1 > Reporter: Allen Wittenauer > Attachments: HADOOP-13363.001.patch > > > Standard protobuf 2.5.0 does not work properly on many platforms.
