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

-------------------------------------

             Summary: Thrift 0.12.0 Source Distribution (.tar.gz) Contains Hardlinks - Extract Fails
                 Key: THRIFT-4874
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-4874
             Project: Thrift
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 0.12.0
            Reporter: Daniel Jewell


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
