Minor Description
The run() function, as defined in dist-layout-stitching.sh and dist-tar-stitching, created in hadoop-dist/pom.xml, does not properly propagate the error code of a failing command. See the following:
...
"${@}" # call fails with non-zero exit code
if [ $? != 0 ]; then
echo
echo "Failed!"
echo
exit $? # $?=result of echo above, likely 0, thus exit with code 0
...
