Bug#561947: My review of the ZooKeeper packaging
I cloned the git repo and took a look around. FYI I'm not super familiar
with debian packaging (as creator, I'm a knowledgeable user though -
ubuntu is my primary dev env).
From what I understand from the doc detail in "debian" directory the
intent for this package is to provide the binaries and sample config,
but the service itself is not started/controlled through this pkg. That
seems fine to me.
I couldn't tell from the git repo itself - just the java code is being
compiled into binary? The C client is provided as source only? (at this
time).
Any other plans longer term? Be aware - Ivy is integrated into the trunk
for 3.3.0 release (sched for March). The "main" code uses this to pull
all dependencies, the contrib is currently being converted over to use
this (so far just bookkeeper).
