Hi @srowen , I admitted currently solution is quite ugly, but like what you
mentioned, it is a chicken-and-egg problem, hard to remove the duplication.
Another solution is by setting `SPARK_HOME` to manually support symlink, but it
still needs to change the current executables, currently we don't honor
`SPARK_HOME`. Take `beeline` as a example, even `SPARK_HOME` is set, still we
could not execute from symlink.
So if setting `SPARK_HOME` as a compromise solution agreed by you guys, I
could update the codes.
What's your opinion?
