[jira] [Created] (HADOOP-9878) getting rid of all the 'bin/../' from all the paths

kaveh minooie created HADOOP-9878:
-------------------------------------

             Summary: getting rid of all the 'bin/../' from all the paths
                 Key: HADOOP-9878
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9878
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: conf
            Reporter: kaveh minooie
            Priority: Trivial


by simply replacing line 34 of libexec/hadoop-config.sh from:

export HADOOP_PREFIX=`dirname "$this"`/..

to 

export HADOOP_PREFIX=$( cd ${config_bin}/..; pwd -P )

we can eliminate all the annoying 'bin/../' from the library paths and make the output of commands like ps a lot more readable. not to mention that OS  would do just a bit less work as well. I can post a patch for it as well if it is needed
