[jira] [Commented] (HADOOP-7810) move hadoop archive to core from tools

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7810?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13164659#comment-13164659 ] 

John George commented on HADOOP-7810:
-------------------------------------

We found that we have different users use their own versions of distcp and with this change, we break their usecase. Those users are expecting the behavior to not change in sustaining releases. While this behavior from our users will go away soon, making this change in a sustaining release seems to be too risky. Could we revert this change and move this to the 0.23/trunk? I was the one who was trying to push this change, but I did not forsee something like this happening and hence the request.

> "The HadoopArchieves classes are included in the $HADOOP_HOME/hadoop_tools.jar, but this file is not found in `hadoop classpath`.
> A Pig script using HCatalog's dynamic partitioning with HAR enabled will therefore fail if a jar with HAR is not included in the pig call's '-cp' and '-Dpig.additional.jars' arguments."
> I am not aware of any reason to not include hadoop-tools.jar in 'hadoop classpath'. Will attach a patch soon.
