Description

On several recent Linux distributions (tested Ubuntu 9.04, RHEL 6.2, Amazon Linux AMI release 2011.09), there is no libcap.so.1. With commons-daemon 1.0.3, the current version selected by hadoop-project/pom.xml, this causes a linking error:

$ wget http://archive.apache.org/dist/commons/daemon/binaries/1.0.3/linux/commons-daemon-1.0.3-bin-linux-x86_64.tar.gz
$ tar xfz commons-daemon-1.0.3-bin-linux-x86_64.tar.gz
$ ldd jsvc 
	linux-vdso.so.1 =>  (0x00007ffff43cc000)
	libdl.so.2 => /lib64/libdl.so.2 (0x00007f9cbbeee000)
	libpthread.so.0 => /lib64/libpthread.so.0 (0x00007f9cbbcd2000)
	libcap.so.1 => not found
	libc.so.6 => /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x00007f9cbb930000)
	/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f9cbc0fb000)

The same problem also occurs with 1.0.4, but 1.0.5 doesn't have the problem:

$ wget http://archive.apache.org/dist/commons/daemon/binaries/1.0.5/linux/commons-daemon-1.0.5-bin-linux-x86_64.tar.gz
$ tar xfz commons-daemon-1.0.5-bin-linux-x86_64.tar.gz 
$ ldd jsvc 
	linux-vdso.so.1 =>  (0x00007fff157ff000)
	libdl.so.2 => /lib64/libdl.so.2 (0x00007f9e14778000)
	libpthread.so.0 => /lib64/libpthread.so.0 (0x00007f9e1455c000)
	libcap.so.2 => /lib64/libcap.so.2 (0x00007f9e14357000)
	libc.so.6 => /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x00007f9e13fb6000)
	/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f9e14985000)
