Patrick Wendell commented on SPARK-6511:
----------------------------------------

Just as an example I tried to wire Spark to work with stock Hadoop 2.6. Here is 
how I got it running after doing a hadoop-provided build. This is pretty 
clunky, so I wonder if we should just support setting HADOOP_HOME or something 
and we can automatically find and add the jar files present within that folder.

{code}
export SPARK_DIST_CLASSPATH=$(find /tmp/hadoop-2.6.0/ -name *.jar | tr "\n" ";")
./bin/spark-shell
{code}

[~vanzin] for your CDH packages, what do you end up setting 
SPARK_DIST_CLASSPATH to?

> Currently we publish a series of binaries with different Hadoop client jars. 
> This mostly works, but some users have reported compatibility issues with 
> different distributions.
> One improvement moving forward might be to publish a binary build that simply 
> asks you to set HADOOP_HOME to pick up the Hadoop client location. That way 
> it would work across multiple distributions, even if they have subtle 
> incompatibilities with upstream Hadoop.
> I think a first step for this would be to produce such a build for the 
> community and see how well it works. One potential issue is that our fancy 
> excludes and dependency re-writing won't work with the simpler "append 
> Hadoop's classpath to Spark". Also, how we deal with the Hive dependency is 
> unclear, i.e. should we continue to bundle Spark's Hive (which has some fixes 
> for dependency conflicts) or do we allow for linking against vanilla Hive at 
> runtime.
