Description

The Bigtop distribution cannot be build with either JDK 1.6 nor JDK 1.7

At least solr giraph and hue have a build requirement on JDK 1.7

On the homepage JDK 1.6 is mentioned as a requirement.

Otherwise the Distribution cannot be build with JDK 1.7 , since oozie enforces the requirement to 1.6.

A big mess.

What scares me that the jenkins http://builds.apache.org/view/All/job/Bigtop-trunk/ seems to work flawless .

My jenkins build needs heavy patching, how should I proceed ?
