Sean Mackrory commented on BIGTOP-811:
--------------------------------------
Just a note that as the new Sqoop version has been committed, we'll need to
take a similar approach with it as we do with Oozie, whenever we reach a
consensus here.

> For components that require the installation of additional artifacts that
> Bigtop cannot distribute (due to license incompatability or other issues),
> Bigtop should provide both a standardized location to which the artifacts can
> be installed, and the ability to auto-detect the locations to which they may
> already be installed.
> Specifically, Sqoop and Hive (and possibly other components) require the
> installation of the MySQL-Java connector when using MySQL for imports,
> exports, or metadata storage. This needs to be done by copying the JAR to a
> directory that is already in the classpath for those components (such as
> /usr/lib/sqoop/lib and /usr/lib/hive/lib). Some repositories distribute
> packages that install the jar to /usr/share/java.
