Bruce Robbins updated SPARK-22940:
----------------------------------
    Description: 
On platforms that don't have wget installed (e.g., Mac OS X), test suite 
org.apache.spark.sql.hive.HiveExternalCatalogVersionsSuite throws an exception 
and aborts:

java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "wget": error=2, No such file or 
directory

HiveExternalCatalogVersionsSuite uses wget to download older versions of Spark 
for compatibility testing. First it uses wget to find a suitable mirror, and 
then it uses wget to download a tar file from the mirror.

There are several ways to fix this (in reverse order of difficulty of 
implementation)

1. Require Mac OS X users to install wget if they wish to run unit tests (or at 
the very least if they wish to run HiveExternalCatalogVersionsSuite). Also, 
update documentation to make this requirement explicit.
2. Fall back on curl when wget is not available.
3. Use an HTTP library to query for a suitable mirror and download the tar file.

Number 2 is easy to implement, and I did so to get the unit test to run. But 
relies on another external program.

Number 3 is probably slightly more complex to implement and requires more 
corner-case checking (e.g, redirects, etc.).
