> Today, users of pyspark (and Scala) need to manually specify the version of 
> Scala that their Spark installation is using when adding a Spark package to 
> their application. This extra configuration is confusing to users who may not 
> even know which version of Scala they are using (for example, if they 
> installed Spark using {{pip}}). The confusion here is exacerbated by releases 
> in Spark that have changed the default from {{2.11}} -> {{2.12}} -> {{2.11}}.

> https://spark.apache.org/releases/spark-release-2-4-3.html
> Since Spark can know which version of Scala it was compiled for, we should 
> give users the option to automatically choose the correct version.  This 
> could be as simple as a substitution for {{$scalaVersion}} or something when 
> resolving a package (similar to SBTs support for automatically handling scala 
> dependencies).
> Here are some concrete examples of users getting it wrong and getting 
> confused:
