---------------------------------

    Attachment: BIGTOP-463.1.patch

Just uploading an initial patch. I've spot-tested a few deb and rpm packages and all is well. I still want to do more testing with the hadoop-* packages (as those changes were a bit more extensive), but thought I'd get this up here for any further discussion in the mean time...

> I keep running into issue where /usr/lib vs. /usr/libexec becomes a pain. In theory it is doing the right thing, but in practice it complicates maintenance and doesn't seem to give us any major benefits. Given that the only 2 packages that use /usr/lib vs. /usr/libexec are bigtop-utils and bigtop-jsvc, perhaps its not too late to reconsider and keep their content under /usr/lib/bigtop-utils ?
