--------------------------------

             Summary: READEME should use "mvn install" instead of "mvn package" 
to compile Flink
                 Key: FLINK-21335
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-21335
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Dong Lin


Currently README suggests users to use "mvn package" to build Flink. As a 
result, the compiled package will not be put in mvn local repository, and "mvn 
test" will download/use snapshots from remote repository instead of testing 
local code change.

This is a bit unintuitive since developers (including those who are not so 
familiar with maven's mechanism) in general expect "mvn test" to test local 
code changes.

So it seems better to update README to use "mvn install" instead of "mvn 
package". There is no downside of this change to my best knowledge.
