Github user rerngvit commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/zeppelin/pull/1077 @jongyoul regarding the description text, according to the [build documentation](https://github.com/apache/zeppelin#build), both options should enable R support. Please let me know, if I miss something. Note that I also tried building with "-Pr" instead of "-Psparkr". However, even on fresh master branch (i.e., not this patch at all) will result in a runtime error when trying to run an R paragraph ("org.apache.thrift.TApplicationException: Internal error processing createInterpreter"). I think this also should be resolved, but it is unrelated to this PR.
