> Oozie uses HCatalog APIs in org.apache.hcatalog packages. Those APIs were
> present until Hive 0.13 but were frozen in their support of the Hive features
> to what existed in Hive 0.7 Using these APIs precludes users from using
> Oozie hcatalog dependencies on tables that use the new APIs.
> The fix is to simply change the package used to the new
> org.apache.hive.hcatalog packag. .
> Note that these APIs are not available in HCatalog 0.5 or 0.6. So we have to
> drop support for those HCatalog versions once we start using this package
