Github user elbamos commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/incubator-zeppelin/pull/208#issuecomment-204582739 @bzz Here's where we are: * I believe all the licensing, rat, and rebasing to-do's are resolved. * On CI, trying to follow your proposal, if we turn-off sudo in CI, then the pyspark tests pass. - **BUT** To test the R interpreter, we need to be able to install the R dependencies. - The base installation directory for R libraries is owned by root and not writable, so we need sudo to change permissions. - The method used in 702 is to use a user-specific R preference file to store R packages in a non-standard location. We can't use that here, because the R interpreter ignores user-specific preferences and directories --- this is an intentional design decision. I am experimenting with a few options -- do you have suggestions?
