Hello, Thanks for your quick comments and encouragement.
I tried building Spark from source using build/sbt assembly It however fails at this point downloading https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/scala-lang/scala-library/2.10.4/scala-library-2.10.4.jar with SSL certificate errors. I understand that it is due to this problem ( http://apache-spark-user-list.1001560.n3.nabble.com/sbt-sbt-assembly-fails-with-ssl-certificate-error-td3046.html ) but I'm not sure why it still it uses https when this PR https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/209 has fixed it. Any help would be greatful.
