Re: [DISCUSS] remove packaging

2012-10-15 Thread Eli Collins
Hey Bobby,

That's correct, I mean the "packages" directories in common, hdfs, and
MR top-level directories, which contain the debs and RPMs.  I'm not
opposed to someone re-working/contributing new code as long as they're
maintained. Don't think there's any sense in keeping the branch-1 code
in trunk/branch-2 since it doesn't support the same daemons, isn't
maintained etc.

Thanks,
Eli

RE: [DISCUSS] remove packaging

2012-10-15 Thread Robert Evans
Eli,

By packaging I assume that you mean the RPM/Deb packages and not the tar.gz.  
If that is the case I have no problem with them being removed because as you 
said in the JIRA BigTop is already providing a working alternative.  If someone 
else wants to step up to maintain them I also don't have a problem with them 
staying, so long as they become a part of HADOOP-8914 (Automating the release 
build).

Hey guys,

Heads up: I filed HADOOP-8925 to remove the packaging from trunk and
branch-2.  The packages are not currently being built, were never
updated for MR2/YARN, I'm not aware of anyone planning to do this work
or maintain them, etc. No sense in letting them continue to bit rot in
the code base.

Thanks,
Eli

Hey guys,

Heads up: I filed HADOOP-8925 to remove the packaging from trunk and
branch-2.  The packages are not currently being built, were never
updated for MR2/YARN, I'm not aware of anyone planning to do this work
or maintain them, etc. No sense in letting them continue to bit rot in
the code base.

Thanks,
Eli
