Cheng Lian commented on SPARK-20958:
------------------------------------

Thanks [~rdblue]! I'm also reluctant to roll it back considering those fixes we 
wanted so badly... We decided to give this a try because, from the perspective 
of release management, we'd like to avoid cutting a release with known 
conflicting dependencies, even transitive ones. For a Spark 2.2 user, it's 
quite natural to choose parquet-avro 1.8.2, which is part of parquet-mr 1.8.2, 
which in turn, is a direct dependency of Spark 2.2.0.

However, due to PARQUET-389, rolling back is already not an option. Two options 
I can see here are:

# Release Spark 2.2.0 as is with a statement in the release notes saying that 
users should use parquet-avro 1.8.1 instead of 1.8.2 to avoid the Avro 
compatibility issue.
# Wait for parquet-mr 1.8.3, which hopefully resolves this dependency issue 
(e.g., by reverting PARQUET-358).

> We recently realized that parquet-mr 1.8.2 used by Spark 2.2.0-rc2 depends on 
> avro 1.8.1, which is incompatible with avro 1.7.6 used by parquet-mr 1.8.1 
> and avro 1.7.7 used by spark-core 2.2.0-rc2.
> Basically, Spark 2.2.0-rc2 introduced two incompatible versions of avro 
> (1.7.7 and 1.8.1). Upgrading avro 1.7.7 to 1.8.1 is not preferable due to the 
> reasons mentioned in [PR 
> #17163|https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/17163#issuecomment-286563131]. 
> Therefore, we don't really have many choices here and have to roll back 
> parquet-mr 1.8.2 to 1.8.1 to resolve this dependency conflict.
