Paritosh Ranjan commented on MAHOUT-1108:
-----------------------------------------

I tend to agree with you.

I don't see the point of extracting it locally and the putting the files in 
hdfs. From what I can see, nothing else is done sequentially (locally) in this 
script. So, MAHOUT_LOCAL seems to be redundant to me.

Still, I think that the first mapreduce call be after 

 HADOOP="$HADOOP_HOME/bin/hadoop"
  if [ ! -e $HADOOP ]; then
    echo "Can't find hadoop in $HADOOP, exiting"
    exit 1
  fi

so that the user is warned with a proper message.

Since I am not the creator of this script, and I am not sure about the use of 
MAHOUT_LOCAL, I would like to wait for someone to clarify the doubts regarding 
MAHOUT_LOCAL. Then, I think we can go ahead this change with some modifications 
( like putting the mapreduce call after the check of hadoop's existence).
