Hey @jmschrack - I'm not sure we want to allow packaging without building
in this script. This allows for some confusing outcomes, such as a user
compiles Spark for one version, then they call `make-distribution` with
different maven flags, and the naming of the distribution and notes are
inconsistent with the actual binaries. Since make-distribution takes identical
flags to the build, I'd rather just force people to build and package
atomically. So I'd prefer to close this issue for now and feel free to re-open
if you'd like to discuss further.
