Hi, Giri found an issue with the naming of the 64-bit RPM and DEB; see HADOOP-8090 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8090>. The RPM is called "hadoop-1.0.1-1.amd64.rpm" but should be called "hadoop-1.0.1-1.x86_64.rpm". Even though it's been this way for a long time, apparently it causes an issue when the rpm is used with yum. (BigTop already uses the "x86_64" form.) To fix this requires a change to build.xml.
In addition, Nathan has requested patches for the following bugs: - MAPREDUCE-3824 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-3824>- Distributed caches are not removed properly - MAPREDUCE-3851 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-3851> - Allow more aggressive action in detection of Jetty issues - HADOOP-8050 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8050>- Deadlock in Namenode metrices and Owen feels this one is pretty important: - HADOOP-8043 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8043> - KerberosAuthenticationFilter and friends have some problems So altogether that's five new issues, all raised (or raised in visibility) since the 1.0.1 vote was called. Two of them, HADOOP-8050 and MAPREDUCE-3824, already have approved fixes, but the remaining three are still in discussion. The thing is that there are people waiting on the 1.0.1 release with some urgency, including a pending BigTop release. So instead of pulling the 1.0.1 release, waiting for fixes, then waiting an additional week for another vote, I suggest that we let 1.0.1 proceed as is, and do a 1.0.2 release as soon as the remaining three bugs noted above are fixed. If you agree with this, please vote in favor of the 1.0.1 release. If you disagree, please vote against the release, and I'll do a 1.0.1-rc2 instead of a 1.0.2. As a reminder, the vote closes Tuesday afternoon. The goal here is to keep everyone fully informed, while providing the most good to the most people, in the face of conflicting requests.
