>
> With the changes for hdfs encryption, hive creates a staging directory inside
> table locations. If an user access a table as read-only access, then the
> staging directory is created in the old scratch directory
> (hive.exec.scratchdir).
> This does not work if the table to access is encrypted for security reasons.
> We don't want that encrypted data is written to an unencrypted zone. But, if
> the scratch directory is encrypted? Then we should allow the access.
> This bug is to fix that.
