[jira] [Created] (IMPALA-14743) Switch from pywebhdfs to maintained hdfs pypi package

Joe McDonnell created IMPALA-14743:
--------------------------------------

             Summary: Switch from pywebhdfs to maintained hdfs pypi package
                 Key: IMPALA-14743
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-14743
             Project: IMPALA
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: Infrastructure
    Affects Versions: Impala 5.0.0
            Reporter: Joe McDonnell


Impala's tests use pywebhdfs to talk to HDFS. pywebhdfs is unmaintained and hasn't had a release in almost ten years. Other python packages provide similar functionality, including the extensions we added to handle chmod / chown / ACLs. For example, the 'hdfs' pypi project is active and provides that functionality: https://pypi.org/project/hdfs/
