Allen Wittenauer commented on YETUS-222:
----------------------------------------

bq.  I'm not sure how the current patch addresses the general availability of 
ISA-L library support in OS package managers.

This is the key problem.

I'll be honest: I'm debating closing this as won't fix. ISAL should be getting 
autodetected during precommit runs now that it is in the Dockerfile (although 
it's there in a less than ideal way), but I haven't verified that.  (and if 
that's not working, that's a bug on the Hadoop side)  Adding it here only makes 
it a requirement which, given the above, is going to be painful for anyone not 
using the Dockerfile.  Non-Linux but Intel based platforms (since ISAL is only 
supported on those) are in an even bigger world of hurt.   There's also the 
cross platform issues:  I wish Hadoop hadn't directly used ISAL and instead 
used liberasurecode as a wrapper, but corporate priorities tend to rule the 
roost over there.  Linux but not Intel based? Yeah, good luck with that.
