I am building spark with the following options - most notably the **scala-2.11**:
. dev/switch-to-scala-2.11.sh mvn -Phive -Pyarn -Phadoop-2.6 -Dhadoop2.6.2 -Pscala-2.11 -DskipTests -Dmaven.javadoc.skip=true clean package The build goes pretty far but fails in one of the minor modules *repl*: [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [ERROR] Failed to execute goal on project spark-repl_2.11: Could not resolve dependencies for project org.apache.spark:spark-repl_2.11:jar:1.5.0-SNAPSHOT: Could not find artifact org.scala-lang:jline:jar:2.11.7 in central (https://repo1.maven.org/maven2) -> [Help 1] Upon investigation - from 2.11.5 and later the scala version of jline is no longer required: they use the default jline distribution. And in fact the repl only shows dependency on jline for the 2.10.4 scala version: <profile> <id>scala-2.10</id> <activation> <property><name>!scala-2.11</name></property> </activation> <properties> <scala.version>2.10.4</scala.version> <scala.binary.version>2.10</scala.binary.version> <jline.version>${scala.version}</jline.version> <jline.groupid>org.scala-lang</jline.groupid> </properties> <dependencyManagement> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>${jline.groupid}</groupId> <artifactId>jline</artifactId> <version>${jline.version}</version> </dependency> </dependencies> </dependencyManagement> </profile> So then it is not clear why this error is occurring. Pointers appreciated.
