             Summary: `make-distribution.sh` should not fail due to missing LICENSE-binary
                 Key: SPARK-25840
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-25840
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Build
    Affects Versions: 3.0.0
            Reporter: Dongjoon Hyun


We vote for the artifacts. All releases are in the form of the *source* materials needed to make changes to the software being released.

http://www.apache.org/legal/release-policy.html#artifacts

From Spark 2.4.0, the source artifact and binary artifact starts to contain own proper LICENSE files (LICENSE, LICENSE-binary). It's great to have them. However, unfortunately, `dev/make-distribution.sh` inside source artifacts start to fail because it expects `LICENSE-binary` and source artifact have only the LICENSE file.

https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/spark/v2.4.0-rc4-bin/spark-2.4.0.tgz

`dev/make-distribution.sh` is used during the voting phase because we are voting on that source artifact instead of GitHub repository.

This issue aims to recover that script to work in any way. This doesn't aim for source artifacts to reproduce the compiled artifacts.
