Github user markhamstra commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/2477#issuecomment-62570870 No, we should definitely do something to make the Debian package functional again. The question is whether we are concerned enough about backward compatibility to adopt the symlink approach of this PR or whether we just change `<prefix>${deb.install.path}/jars</prefix>` to `<prefix>${deb.install.path}/lib</prefix>`. The only real alternative to either of those approaches is to eliminate the Debian packaging entirely. In any event, we shouldn't leave broken packaging in place.
