Are there some conventions in naming the installation packages of a program? That can help to decide which package to download and install on a computer system.For example, rom http://www.gtlib.gatech.edu/pub/apache/hadoop/common/hadoop-2.4.1/[   ] hadoop-2.4.1-src.tar.gz     03-Nov-2014 11:54   15M  [   ] hadoop-2.4.1.tar.gz         03-Nov-2014 11:54  132M   hadoop-2.4.1-src.tar.gz seems to indicate it is for installation from compiling source code.Then what kind of installation is the one from hadoop-2.4.1.tar.gz? It is much larger, and I wonder it if is a cross-platform binary installation?Can I install it on Ubuntu 12.04?
