I have trouble building it.  CentOS release 6.2 (Final), Linux dvert1 2.6.32-220.17.1.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed May 16 00:01:37 BST 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux


Here's what I get when I do a "make build"

make[1]: Entering directory '/home/users/david/VERTICA_EXTENSION_PACKAGES/Vertica-Extension-Packages/avro_parser/tparty'

We're considering switching from the JSON to Avro for some of our data source streams.  The self describing schema in Avro along with the binary data transfer to eliminate text parsing are the very attractive driving features.  However, loosing the OOB FlexZone  capability in Vertica we have with a JSON source is negative.  We'd like to see FlexZone include Avro OOB.
