Hello, As we know Kylin ships a Spark in its binary package; The total package becomes bigger and bigger as the version grows; the latest version (v2.6.1) is bigger than 350MB, which was rejected by Apache SVN server when trying to upload the new package. Among the 350MB, more than 200MB is Spark, while Spark is not mandatory for Kylin.
So I would propose to exclude Spark from Kylin's binary package, from the current v2.6.1; the user just needs to point SPARK_HOME to any a folder of the expected spark version, or manually download and then put it to KYLIN_HOME/spark. All other behaviors are not impacted. Just share your comments if any.
