Konstantin Boudnik commented on BIGTOP-1482:
--------------------------------------------

According to the Hadoop's BUILDING.txt:
{noformat}
* Use -Drequire.snappy to fail the build if libsnappy.so is not found.
  If this option is not specified and the snappy library is missing,
  we silently build a version of libhadoop.so that cannot make use of snappy.
{noformat}

Now, if you look in Bigtop do-component-build for Hadoop you'll see this
{code}
[ -f /usr/lib/libsnappy.so ] && BUNDLE_SNAPPY="-Dsnappy.prefix=x 
-Dbundle.snappy=true -Dsnappy.lib=/usr/lib"
{code}
which implies that Bigtop will only build Hadoop with snappy if libsnappy is 
present. In other words, it's totally opposite to what you've said. 

Do you have a use case in mind?
