Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-7459:
----------------------------------------
An alternate option is to have a set of RPMs that depend on both hadoop and
different JDKs, are marked as exclusive, and user can install them. If I
install hadoop-core-sunjdk then I get the sun JDK and hadoop; if I install
hadoop-core-openjdk then I get the openjdk one. And if I install neither, I get
to sort it out myself.
If there's one problem with this its that if they are all in the same directory
you cant go rpm --install *.rpm, because they will be exclusive. Unless they
aren't marked as exclusive and if you install both it picks up the Sun JDK.
> rpm shouldn't include jdk dependency check
