Is there Pig 14 in Cloudera?

I need Pig installed on my Ubuntu server, currently it uses cloudera distribution:

 

pig_0.12.0+cdh5.3.0+46-1.cdh5.3.0.p0.24~precise-cdh5.3.0_all.deb

 

However I need to upgrade to Pig 14, and it doesn't seem there is one there. Any chance to get it from Cloudera or do i need to set it up by myself? Doing the latter wouldn't be that hard, but I would prefer to keep my environment consistent and easier to mantain.

Pig 0.14 is quite recent (Nov 2014), we'd have to perform a lot of testing
before including it in a GA release. So you could roll it out on your own
for now till CDH includes it. You could subscribe to the Announcements
forum to find out when a new release of CDH comes out and check the release
notes

I see. I was asking because in 0.14 they fixed a bug, which was apparently introduced in 12 or earlier (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-3985) and I spent whole day fighting with.

 

I tried to upgrade myself, built 14 with flag for Hadoop 2,  but got a lots of warnings and then ant test wasn't passing. Therefore I decided for now we will stick to Cloudera-approved 12 and just use the workaround describe in that JIRA.

 

Thanks for your help!
