sstabledump on ubuntu packaged installs

Question

According to the specs, Cassandra should have the command line tool sstabledump available since its versions 3.0.4 and 3.4.

I cannot find this tool, although I successfully installed Cassandra 3.5 together with the tools.

I used the following source

deb http://www.apache.org/dist/cassandra/debian 35x main

and the following commands:

sudo apt-get install cassandra
sudo apt-get install cassandra-tools

What am I missing here?

Thanks, medvekoma

Answer 1

It looks like the sstabledump utility hasn't been added to the cassandra-tools.install in the cassandra debian install on trunk. I'd suggest raising a jira for this here.
