Description
The number of directory layouts possible for hcat, and the number of possible config locations and scripts to start off hcat is ridiculous. We should not have a separate hcat-env.sh, hcat-config.sh and then depend on HCAT_PREFIX, HCAT_CONF_DIR, and then try to figure out defaults like whether or not conf is in ${HCAT_PREFIX}/conf/ /etc/hcatalog , ${HCAT_PREFIX}/etc/hcatalog , etc.
We really should clean this up all over.
