Description

If we build pxf rpm package by 'make rpm', we will get below pxf packages:

apache-tomcat-7.0.62-el6.noarch.rpm
pxf-3.2.1.0-root.el6.noarch.rpm
pxf-hbase_3_2_1_0-3.2.1.0-root.el6.noarch.rpm
pxf-hdfs_3_2_1_0-3.2.1.0-root.el6.noarch.rpm
pxf-hive_3_2_1_0-3.2.1.0-root.el6.noarch.rpm
pxf-jdbc_3_2_1_0-3.2.1.0-root.el6.noarch.rpm
pxf-json_3_2_1_0-3.2.1.0-root.el6.noarch.rpm
pxf-service_3_2_1_0-3.2.1.0-root.el6.noarch.rpm

These rpm packages have dependencies on Apache Hadoop components only, some other Hadoop distributes can't satisfy it. E.g. :

rpm -ivh pxf-hdfs_3_2_1_0-3.2.1.0-root.el6.noarch.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
pxf-service_3_2_1_0 >= 3.2.1.0 is needed by pxf-hdfs_3_2_1_0-0:3.2.1.0-root.el6.noarch
hadoop >= 2.7.1 is needed by pxf-hdfs_3_2_1_0-0:3.2.1.0-root.el6.noarch
hadoop-mapreduce >= 2.7.1 is needed by pxf-hdfs_3_2_1_0-0:3.2.1.0-root.el6.noarch

We'd better make the rpm package name format and dependencies better.
1. Remove the version string like '3_2_1_0'.
2. Remove the user name from the build environment.
3. Consider do we need to include the apache-tomcat rpm package into HAWQ rpm release tarball.
4. Improve the hard code 'el6' string. (This might be optinal)
5. Improve the dependencies, including the dependencies between these pxf rpm packages.
