[jira] [Created] (BIGTOP-463) should we reconsider /usr/lib vs.
/usr/libexec decision?
should we reconsider /usr/lib vs. /usr/libexec decision?
--------------------------------------------------------
Key: BIGTOP-463
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-463
Project: Bigtop
Issue Type: Bug
Components: General
Affects Versions: 0.4.0
Reporter: Roman Shaposhnik
Assignee: Roman Shaposhnik
Fix For: 0.4.0
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 ?

Philip Zeyliger commented on BIGTOP-463:
----------------------------------------
Bigtop already deviates from distribution defaults in our defaults for chkconfig in certain places; I think that where it's not harmful, it'd be better to be consistent within bigtop rather than across.
