Description
In HADOOP-6105, we provided a method of adding deprecated keys from other sub-projects like HDFS and Map/Reduce using a key called hadoop.conf.extra.classes. The expectation was that this key had class names that will be statically loaded by the Configuration class and the classes could add deprecated keys in static blocks of their classes. We discovered as in HADOOP-6243, that the classes added could have side-effects if they, for e.g. load resources in configuration. To unblock builds, we are disabling this feature in fixing HADOOP-6243. However, I am opening this JIRA to follow-up on a fix for the original intention.
