Shivaram Venkataraman commented on SPARK-8684: ---------------------------------------------- Building from source might take a while and it wouldn't be a good idea to do it by default. We could put it behind a flat (--r-version=3.2) and then only build from source if the user specifies the flag. But the yum option could be made default if we could get it to work. > Update R version in Spark EC2 AMI > --------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-8684 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-8684 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: EC2, SparkR > Reporter: Shivaram Venkataraman > Priority: Minor > > Right now the R version in the AMI is 3.1 -- However a number of R libraries > need R version 3.2 and it will be good to update the R version on the AMI > while launching a EC2 cluster. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
