Nevermind I fixed the apt issue, but the current problem is that the
COMPONENTS of the smoke test cannot be grouped together. IIUC we want
to be able to kick off a run with COMPONENTS set to all or a subset of
daemons (yarn/hdfs/etc..), that will bootstrap the hadoop cluster via
Docker. I'll open a task and work on it, hopefully there is an easy
solution :)
