> The {{HCatalogIO}} does not work with environments providing Hive Server 1.x which is in widespread use - as an example the latest Cloudera (5.14.2) provides 1.1.x
>
> The {{HCatalogIO}} marks it's Hive dependencies as provided, so I believe the intention was to be open to multiple versions.
>
> The issues come from the following:
> - use of {{HCatUtil.getHiveMetastoreClient(hiveConf)}} while previous versions used the [now deprecated|https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/master/hcatalog/core/src/main/java/org/apache/hive/hcatalog/common/HCatUtil.java#L586] {{getHiveClient(HiveConf hiveConf)}}
> - Changes to the signature of {{RetryingMetaStoreClient.getProxy(...)}}
>
> Given this doesn't work in a major Hadoop distro, and will not until the next CDH release later in 2018 (i.e. widespread adoption only expected in 2019) I think it would be worthwhile providing a fix/workaround.
> I _think_ building for 2.3 and relocating in your own app might be a workaround although I'm still testing it. If that is successful I'd propose adding it to the project README or in a separate markdown file linked from the README.
> Does that sound like a reasonable approach please?
