Description

On Databricks to add an R library I enter two items. URL and package name.

https://mmlspark.azureedge.net mmlspark-0.10.dev24+145.g6c0cdfcc6.zip

It then creates a URL https://mmlspark.azureedge.net/web/packages/mmlspark-0.10.dev24%2B145.g6c0cdfcc6.zip

But, my R package is at... https://mmlspark.azureedge.net/rrr/mmlspark-0.10.dev24+145.g6c0cdfcc6.zip

Research direction
Investigate the build configuration for R packages in SynapseML. Look at the repository's build scripts (e.g., azure pipelines.yml or build.sbt) to determine how the R package is published and where the URL path is set. The user reports that the expected path includes 'web/packages/' but the package is located under 'rrr/'. This suggests a mismatch in the packaging or deployment configuration. Check if there is a configuration file that maps package names to paths. The assignee may have more context; review any linked comments or commits. The fix likely involves updating the path in the relevant configuration.
