Description

IMPALA-6731 broke impala-python for me. It is now failing to import kudu with this error:

ImportError: /home/tarmstrong/Impala/incubator-impala/infra/python/env/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/kudu/client.so: undefined symbol: _ZNK4kudu6client10KuduTablet2idB5cxx11Ev

It looks like the client was compiled with the C++11 ABI whereas libkudu_client.so does not - its version of the symbol is _ZNK4kudu6client10KuduTablet2idEv.

Reverting IMPALA-6731 solves the problem. I have PYPI_MIRROR set locally.

This makes it impossible to run Python tests for me.
