Ashutosh Chauhan commented on HCATALOG-63:
------------------------------------------
1. This only creates a client packages. We need a hcat server package too. Once
we have server package, we can get rid off all the sh scripts in scripts/.
2. This patch will probably break scripts/hcat_server_install.sh but since we
will get corresponding server packages, we won't need them anymore.
3. For deb package lets not put dependency on openjdk because hadoop security
depends on sun-jdk itself.
4. To install this, user must be a member of hadoop group, which I think should
not be required. It should be possible to install client package without being
superuser.
