Joe McDonnell resolved IMPALA-10962. ------------------------------------ Fix Version/s: Impala 4.2.0 Resolution: Fixed We think this was fixed by building the toolchain on Ubuntu 20. > Toolchain Python loses readline functionality on Ubuntu 20.04 > ------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: IMPALA-10962 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-10962 > Project: IMPALA > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: Impala 4.0.0 > Reporter: Laszlo Gaal > Assignee: Joe McDonnell > Priority: Critical > Fix For: Impala 4.2.0 > > > Toolchain Python lacks {{readline}} functionality when running on Ubuntu > 20.04. > The most visible corollary is that {{impala-shell}} loses command-line > editing capabilities as well. > This happens because the Impala project currently uses UBuntu 18 binaries > when it detects a Ubuntu 20 platform (see IMPALA-10199). Toolchain Python > built on Ubuntu 18 binds to {{libreadline.so.7}}, which doesn't exist on > Ubuntu 20. only the {{libreadline.so.8}} is provided. > The workaround is relatively easy; execute as {{root}}: > {code:java} > # cd /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu > # ln -s libreadline.so.8 libreadline.so.7{code} > but this is not obvious, and Impala contributors should not be forced to > execute this. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.7#820007) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-all-unsubscr...@impala.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-all-h...@impala.apache.org
