[jira] [Updated] (SPARK-18817) Ensure nothing is written outside R's tempdir() by default

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-18817?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Brendan Dwyer updated SPARK-18817:
----------------------------------
    Description: 
Per CRAN policies
https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/policies.html
{quote}
- Packages should not write in the users’ home filespace, nor anywhere else on the file system apart from the R session’s temporary directory (or during installation in the location pointed to by TMPDIR: and such usage should be cleaned up). Installing into the system’s R installation (e.g., scripts to its bin directory) is not allowed.
Limited exceptions may be allowed in interactive sessions if the package obtains confirmation from the user.

- Packages should not modify the global environment (user’s workspace).
{quote}

Currently "spark-warehouse" gets created in the working directory when sparkR.session() is called.
