[jira] [Commented] (MAPREDUCE-2265) task-controller and jsvc should install into sbin// directory

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-2265?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13018015#comment-13018015 ] 

Allen Wittenauer commented on MAPREDUCE-2265:
---------------------------------------------

It needs to get fixed in 0.22 because it will become a defacto (shell) API.  

> task-controller and jsvc should install into sbin/<platform>/ directory

> Currently the task-controller and jsvc "live" in the bin/ directory regardless of build platform. This is incorrect since these components are native compiled code and thus are built for a particular architecture. So, when we ship a build of 22, we will want to ship both 32-bit and 64-bit artifacts so users can use these components without rebuilding on their own.
> Additionally, it doesn't make sense for them to be in bin/ since they're not user-facing in any way (i.e a user would never directly invoke them). So I would propose putting them in an sbin directory.
> The final proposed path is $HADOOP_HOME/sbin/<platform>/{jsvc,task-controller}
> Note this is not an incompatible change since these components were not present in any prior apache release.
