             Summary: Create wiki page comparing FHS guidelines with the bigtop packaging results
                 Key: BIGTOP-1142
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-1142
             Project: Bigtop
          Issue Type: Task
            Reporter: jay vyas


The bigtop specs and packaging results should be compared with the FHS guidelines http://www.tldp.org/LDP/Linux-Filesystem-Hierarchy/html/ , to confirm that everything is correct.  

1) For example, it would be nice to confirm that the executables in bigtop were all in "/usr/bin/" and not "/usr/lib/...", etc...  

2) Also, if possible, it would be nice if the effort that the fedora community is putting into packaging hadoop could be merged/synergistic with the efforts of the folks at bigtop.  

So, this JIRA is to create a first pass of a document/wiki page which documents the bigtop packaging strategy at a high level and compares it with other hadoop packaging efforts, with specific notes about how bigtop's broader packaging infrastructure diverges from that for a traditional OS.
