Shell.java: fix absolute path `/bin/ls` This commit uses `ls` from PATH instead of relying on `ls` being stored in `/bin/`. The only file according to the POSIX standard which must be stored in `/bin/` is `sh`. This fixes issues plaguing distributions like NixOS which dynamically stitch together a PATH. This fix is loosly related to https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-11935 and more specifically related to https://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/hadoop-user/201512.mbox/%3CCAH2nEUgsSeoJTJkD4T8z=D18ECnRgQ3Qvz861gU5+NPSsNgT=a...@mail.gmail.com%3E You can merge this pull request into a Git repository by running: $ git pull https://github.com/makefu/hadoop patch-1 Alternatively you can review and apply these changes as the patch at: https://github.com/apache/hadoop/pull/81.patch To close this pull request, make a commit to your master/trunk branch with (at least) the following in the commit message: This closes #81 ---- commit 4e8f93d8eecce551b1eebd531c71e3c7144c9210 Author: Felix Richter <git...@syntax-fehler.de> Date: 2016-02-29T08:08:06Z Shell.java: fix absolute path `/bin/ls` This commit uses `ls` from PATH instead of relying on `ls` being stored in `/bin/`.
