Also, the fact that the import initially doesn't work from the downloads
folder after building the tar.gz:
> At this point, it doesn't work:
>
> ```shell
> ~/Downloads/pyarrow-13.0.0 ❯ python -c "import pyarrow"
> Traceback (most recent call last):
> File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
> File "/Users/dylan/Downloads/pyarrow-13.0.0/pyarrow/__init__.py", line
65, in <module>
> import pyarrow.lib as _lib
> ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pyarrow.lib'
> ```
That is because it is trying to import the local directory with the name
pyarrow, and not the one installed in site-packages. You can see that the path
in the error message
("/Users/dylan/Downloads/pyarrow-13.0.0/pyarrow/__init__.py"). That's an
expected (but for sure confusing if not thinking about it) error when having a
local file or directory with a clashing name.
But so it seems that at least your local build and install is working.
