The building of the Debian package in Spark works just fine for me -- I just did it using a clean check-out of 1.1.1-SNAPSHOT and `mvn -U -Pdeb -DskipTests clean package`. There's likely something else amiss in your build.
Actually, that's not quite true. There is one small problem with the Debian packaging that you should be aware of: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-3624 https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/2477#issuecomment-58291272 You should also know there is no such thing as standard Debian packages or official debs for Spark, nor is it likely that there ever will be. What is available was never intended as anything more than a convenient hack (or a starting point for a custom hack) for Spark developers or users who need a way to create a Spark package sufficient to use in a configuration management system or something of that nature. A proper collection of debs that divides Spark up into multiple parts, properly reflects inter-package dependencies, relocates executables, configuration and libraries to conform to the expectations of a larger system, etc. is something that the Apache Spark Project does not do, probably won't do, and probably shouldn't do -- something like that is better handled by the distributors of OSes or larger software systems like Apache Bigtop.
