These two cloud libraries are very useful in many contexts but hard to package due to the SDKs needed. I am totally fine with skipping these. | utf8proc TRUE | re2 TRUE | snappy TRUE | gzip TRUE | brotli FALSE | zstd FALSE These two compressors should be easy to add as we have the lib*-dev packages. | lz4 TRUE | lz4_frame TRUE | lzo FALSE | bz2 FALSE These two compressors should be easy to add as we have the lib*-dev packages. | jemalloc FALSE This one should be easy (libjemalloc-dev) but I am not sure I care :) | mimalloc TRUE | | Memory: | | Allocator mimalloc | Current 0 bytes | Max 0 bytes | | Runtime: | | SIMD Level sse4_2 | Detected SIMD Level sse4_2 My locally built arrow has a better optimisation but such is life. This choice seems fine. | Build: | | C++ Library Version 21.0.0 | C++ Compiler GNU | C++ Compiler Version 15.2.0 | Git ID 72b7209c8cd25dc974accdc65c1bd9c7dcc2d7a Thanks for your persistence in packaging this.
