Allen Wittenauer commented on HADOOP-11790:
-------------------------------------------

Pending LEGAL review, it looks like RocksDB has changed their license to be ASF 
compatible.  We should seriously consider switching to it, since it looks like 
they didn't divide their fat jar and slim jar dependencies.  (in other words, 
getting RocksDB working on something like ARM is going to be a lot easier.)

> leveldb usage should be disabled by default or smarter about platforms

>             Project: Hadoop Common
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 2.6.0, 3.0.0-alpha3
>         Environment: * any non-x86
> * any OS that isn't Linux, OSX, Windows
>            Reporter: Ayappan
>            Priority: Critical
>
> The leveldbjni artifact in maven repository has been built for only x86 
> architecture. Due to which some of the testcases are failing in PowerPC. The 
> leveldbjni community has no plans to support other platforms [ 
> https://github.com/fusesource/leveldbjni/issues/54 ]. Right now , the 
> approach is we need to locally built leveldbjni prior to running hadoop 
> testcases. Pushing a PowerPC-specific leveldbjni artifact in central maven 
> repository and making pom.xml to pickup it up while running in PowerPC is 
> another option but i don't know whether this is a suitable one . Any other 
> alternative/solution is there ?
