-----------------------------------
> 'make tools' should check the version of tools
> ----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-17140
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-17140
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Chia-Ping Tsai
> Assignee: Chia-Ping Tsai
> Priority: Major
>
> Makefile, by default, checks only the existence of file. Hence, developers
> need to remove tools folder (or call `make distclean`) manually to trigger
> the installation after we update the version of tools.
> However, how developers can be aware of the tools updates? Personally, I
> smell fishy from the error of warning, but that could be implicit and noisy
> :cry
> In order to fix that, I'd like to introduce the new folder structure to tools
> folder: /tools/{tool_name}/{version}. That offers a unique path to each
> version of tool. Developers will not miss the updates anymore.
> NOTED: we need to remove the existent tool binary if there is naming conflict
> in creating the new path. For example, creating /tools/golangci-lint/1.57.2
> will fail if /tools/golangci-lint is a existent file.
