Github user fommil commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/incubator-spark/pull/575#issuecomment-35547276 @srowen "The LGPL is ineligible primarily due to the restrictions it places on larger works, violating the third license criterion. Therefore, LGPL-licensed works must not be included in Apache products." where third license criterion is "The license must not place restrictions on the distribution of larger works, other than to require that the covered component still complies with the conditions of its license." I do not see any violation here.
