Github user aarondav commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/237#issuecomment-39654566 Alright, I changed up the solution by having Maven also download the datanucleus jars into lib_managed/jars/ (unlike SBT, Maven will only download these jars, and only when building Spark with Hive). Now we will include datanucleus on the classpath if they're present in lib_managed and the Spark assembly includes Hive (by looking up with the "jar" command).
