             Summary: Simplify make-distribution.sh
                 Key: SPARK-2526
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-2526
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Build
            Reporter: Patrick Wendell
            Assignee: Patrick Wendell


There is a some complexity make-distribution.sh around selecting profiles. This 
is both annoying to maintain and also limits the number of ways that packagers 
can use this. For instance, it's not possible to build with separate HDFS and 
YARN versions, and supporting this with our current flags would get pretty 
complicated. We should just allow the user to pass a list of profiles directly 
to make-distribution.sh - the Maven build itself is already parameterized to 
support this. We also now have good docs explaining the use of profiles in the 
Maven build.

All of this logic was more necessary when we used SBT for the package build, 
but we haven't done that for several versions.
