Description

Observed behavior:
In my automation, I have a call to hbase zkcli. That call recently broke with this checkin: https://github.com/apache/hbase/commit/5af0a60efed91ac2084f25f13edb21db0f510e7c

The error that is reported is:

++ ./hbase zkcli
11:19:58  Warning: $HADOOP_HOME is deprecated.
11:19:58  
11:20:00  Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalAccessError: tried to access field org.slf4j.impl.StaticLoggerBinder.SINGLETON from class org.slf4j.LoggerFactory
11:20:00  	at org.slf4j.LoggerFactory.<clinit>(LoggerFactory.java:60)
11:20:00  	at org.apache.zookeeper.ZooKeeperMain.<clinit>(ZooKeeperMain.java:50)
11:20:00  	at org.apache.hadoop.hbase.zookeeper.ZooKeeperMainServer.main(ZooKeeperMainServer.java:78)
11:20:00  Build step 'Execute shell' marked build as failure

That said, this checkin is perfectly valid as each component should be allowed to specify its own dependencies.

The issue is a deeper one of dependency mismatches.

Note: This issue only affects hadoop1, not hadoop2. It also appears in trunk, where there is a similar checkin, but since trunk is not required to work against hadoop1, this is not an issue for trunk.
