Native builds (compile-core-native) fail on Mac OSX due to dependency on 'ldd' or 'objdump' -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-7477 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7477 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Bug Components: build Affects Versions: 0.20.205.0, 0.23.0 Environment: Mac OSX build environment Reporter: Matt Foley Assignee: Giridharan Kesavan When trying to build the patch for HDFS-7432, which is a NativeIO implementation for chmod, it became clear that building the "compile-core-native" target doesn't work on Mac, apparently due to: {{[exec] checking zlib.h presence... configure: error: Can't find either 'objdump' or 'ldd' to compute the dynamic library for '-lz'}} These utility programs are not present on Mac. One source suggests using {{otool -L}} instead. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
