             Summary: Don't build bison and autotools in the native-toolchain
                 Key: IMPALA-12070
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-12070
             Project: IMPALA
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Infrastructure
    Affects Versions: Impala 4.3.0
            Reporter: Joe McDonnell


The native-toolchain builds autoconf, automake, libtool, and bison. However, 
these are completely unnecessary. These utilities are installed into the docker 
images used for the build, and almost all components use the utilities from OS 
rather than the toolchain.

The only exceptions to this are pieces of old code that have been sitting 
around for 5+ years.

We should stop building these as part of the toolchain. This helps reduce the 
references to GPL code in the repository.
