Marcelo, consider the following use case and see if it makes sense: I'm a
savvy customer. I name my jar file "spark-assembly.jar" because I see that as
the outermost jar file in CDH (I get rid of unnecessary symlinks). I modify (or
rather bypass) most of compute-classpath.sh including the check for jar file
name. Now I find that the check for the jar file name (which was a bad idea to
begin with) is part of Spark code that gets compiled and therefore cannot be
easily modified.
Btw, is having strict checks on assembly jar names a good idea? Or should I
be able to name my jar "assembly.jar" as long as it is the only one and in the
right folder?
