This PR enables one to create the Hadoop
release tarball on Windows, complete with
the native binaries (including winutils.exe).
This PR contains the following changes -
* Prevents splitting during array element
expansion - this is needed since we need
to pass the arguments correctly to maven.
* Install Python 3.11.8 and pip to the
Windows docker image for building
Hadoop.
* pom file changes to get maven to invoke
the releasedocmaker script through
bash.exe on Windows.
* The remote server hosting maven
was temporarily unavailable causing
the Hadoop Jenkins CI to fail.
* Thus, we're switching to use a CDN
to mitigate such issues.
* Centos 8 has reached its
End-of-Life and thus its
packages are no longer
accessible from
mirror.centos.org.
* This PR switches the baseurl
to vault.centos.org where
the packages are archived.
