########## python/pyarrow/src/arrow-python.pc.in: ########## @@ -1,28 +0,0 @@ -# Licensed to the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) under one Review Comment: Because we can't provide `.pc` in portable way for Python package. `.pc` requires fixed install location but Python package is relocatable. Users can install it to `/usr/local/lib/python*/dist-packages/pyarrow/`, `~/.local/lib/python*/site-packages/pyarrow/` and so on. If we want to keep `.pc` support, we need to rewrite `.pc` after pyarrow is installed. (This is the approach that is used by MSYS2 package.) FYI: `.pc` aren't installed since our `cpp/src/arrow/python/` -> `python/` migration. It means that users already can't use `arrow-python.pc` since 10.0.0. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
