             Summary: giraph charm: release audit failure
                 Key: BIGTOP-2908
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-2908
             Project: Bigtop
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: build
    Affects Versions: 1.2.1
            Reporter: Kevin W Monroe
            Assignee: Kevin W Monroe
            Priority: Blocker


[~cos] reported a RAT failure with the giraph charm when reviewing 1.2.1 readiness:

- RAT (failed)
  The release tarball includes a binary file [1]. If the file is definetely
  should be a part of the release (which I have my reservations as this goes
  against source-only policy of the ASF), then at the very least we need to
  add it into RAT exclue list.

[1] bigtop-packages/src/charm/giraph/layer-giraph/resources/giraph-examples-1.1.0.jar

I happen to know that panagiotisl packed this examples.jar into the charm source because it does not exist on the system by default.

Upon further inspection, it seems this jar is available in the *giraph-doc* package.  I think a simple fix will be to install this package during charm install so we can use the system jar and remove the binary from this source tree.

I'll open an issue on the giraph charm repo and link it here shortly.
