[jira] [Comment Edited] (THRIFT-4874) Thrift 0.12.0 Source Distribution (.tar.gz) Contains Hardlinks - Extract Fails

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-4874?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16935276#comment-16935276 ]

[~danieljewell]: Do you have more details available? How can I check this? What is the exact error message you get?

I tried looking into the tarball but the tool I used did not reveal any links at all, let alone hardlinks. What I found was however a number of folders that are owned by "root". Could that be the issue?

> Hello!
> The source release tarball of Thrift contains hardlinks - which makes it impossible to extract on a platform where you cannot create hardlinks (e.g. on a non-root Android device). (e.g. the archive was not created with --hard-dereference) 
> I discovered this as a knock-on effect of trying to build Apache Arrow C++ on Android (in Termux)... The build fails because the Thrift tarball can't be extracted because of the hardlinks.
> Best,
> -Daniel
