   > There are many ways for users to install spark and we should make the CLI 
available in all case.
   
   Agreed. When Spark is installed via a Python installer, we need to configure 
[`scripts`](https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/references/keywords.html#keyword-scripts)
 or 
[`console_scripts`](https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/specifications/entry-points/)
 accordingly. Homebrew has [its own 
mechanism](https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/0843a42ade8e5582b97a39f41934d75f7ae6d60f/Formula/a/apache-spark.rb#L31)
 for installing executables on the `PATH`. Other package managers do their own 
thing.
   
   I think as long as we provide the executable and a clear specification of 
runtime dependencies, each package manager or distributor will figure out how 
to do the right thing.
