Description

When I try to build sqoop with hadoop.version explicitly set to 2.4.0 or later, TestExportUsingProcedure compilation fails because StringUtils.repeat(String,String,int) method can not be resolved.

Commons-lang introduced this in 2.5. Our ivy/libraries.properties still specifies 2.4. Even changing the commons-lang version to 2.5 does not fix it as we seem to inherit the 2.4 version through other dependencies.
