Description

During the old ZooKeeper 3.4 ant builds (ant package-native), there was an artifact (zookeeper-<version>-lib.tar.gz) created just for the C-client, with the following content:

usr
  |--- bin
         |--- cli_mt
         |--- cli_st
         |--- load_gen
  |--- include
         |--- zookeeper
                |--- proto.h
                |--- recordio.h
                |--- zookeeper.h
                |--- zookeeper.jute.h
                |--- zookeeper_log.h
                |--- zookeeper_version.h
  |--- lib
         |--- libzookeeper_mt.a
         |--- libzookeeper_mt.la
         |--- libzookeeper_mt.so
         |--- libzookeeper_mt.so.2
         |--- libzookeeper_mt.so.2.0.0
         |--- libzookeeper_st.a
         |--- libzookeeper_st.la
         |--- libzookeeper_st.so
         |--- libzookeeper_st.so.2
         |--- libzookeeper_st.so.2.0.0

Currently with maven, when we are generating a tarball during full-build then the C-client is not getting archived. In PR-1078 we discussed that we should re-introduce the apache-zookeeper-<version>-lib.tar.gz artifact.

The goals of this task are:

• re-introduce the 'lib' artifact, with the same structure we had for the older zookeeper 3.4.x ant generated artifact
• we should also add the LICENSE.txt file to the archive (it was missing from the 3.4.x version tar.gz file)
• the new artifact should be generated only when the full-build profile is set for maven
• we should also update the README_packaging.md file
