Sean Owen created SPARK-5669:
--------------------------------

             Summary: Spark assembly includes incompatibly licensed 
libgfortran, libgcc code via JBLAS
                 Key: SPARK-5669
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-5669
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Build
            Reporter: Sean Owen
            Priority: Blocker
             Fix For: 1.3.0


Sorry for "Blocker", but it's a license issue. The Spark assembly includes the 
following, from JBLAS:

{code}
lib/
lib/static/
lib/static/Mac OS X/
lib/static/Mac OS X/x86_64/
lib/static/Mac OS X/x86_64/libjblas_arch_flavor.jnilib
lib/static/Mac OS X/x86_64/sse3/
lib/static/Mac OS X/x86_64/sse3/libjblas.jnilib

lib/static/Windows/amd64/jblas.dll
lib/static/Windows/amd64/libgcc_s_sjlj-1.dll
lib/static/Windows/amd64/jblas_arch_flavor.dll

lib/static/Linux/i386/
lib/static/Linux/i386/sse3/
lib/static/Linux/i386/sse3/libjblas.so
lib/static/Linux/i386/libjblas_arch_flavor.so
lib/static/Linux/amd64/
lib/static/Linux/amd64/sse3/
lib/static/Linux/amd64/sse3/libjblas.so
lib/static/Linux/amd64/libjblas_arch_flavor.so
{code}

Unfortunately the libgfortran and libgcc libraries included for Windows are not 
licensed in a way that's compatible with Spark and the AL2 -- LGPL at least.

It's easy to exclude them. I'm not clear what it does to running on Windows; I 
assume it can still work but the libs would have to be made available locally 
and put on the shared library path manually. I don't think there's a package 
manager as in Linux that would make it easily available. I'm not able to test 
on Windows.

If it doesn't work, the follow-up question is whether that means JBLAS has to 
be removed on the double, or treated as a known issue for 1.3.0.
