1.0.4:

        "Prints the class path needed to get the Hadoop jar and the required 
libraries.”

 2.8.0 and 3.0.0:

        "Prints the class path needed to get the Hadoop jar and the required 
libraries. If called without arguments, then prints the classpath set up by the 
command scripts, which is likely to contain wildcards in the classpath entries.”

        I would take that to mean “what gives me all the public APIs?”  Which, 
by definition, should all be in hadoop-client-runtime (with the possible 
exception of the DistributedFileSystem Quota APIs, since for some reason those 
are marked public.) 

Let me ask it a different way:

        Why should ‘yarn jar’, ‘mapred jar’, ‘hadoop distcp’, ‘hadoop fs’, etc, 
etc, etc, have anything but hadoop-client-runtime as the provided jar? Yes, 
some things might break, but given this is 3.0, some changes should be expected 
anyway. Given the definition above "needed to get the Hadoop jar and the 
required libraries”  switching this over seems correct.
