> As discussed at [#41395 (comment)](https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/41395#issuecomment-2116223200), we would like to maintain support for CentOS 7 for a while longer if possible. > > If this upgrade from 1.65.0 to 1.65.1 does not patch any CVEs or fix any known problems (and if it is not needed to enable us to upgrade other dependencies that patch CVEs or fix known problems) then we could stay at 1.65.0 for the time being? > > I recognize that as these deferred version bumps start to accumulate, eventually we will have to just go ahead and drop CentOS 7 support. I trust your judgement on when it's time to throw in the towel and just do it. I don't see mention of a CVE but I see a possible fix to address compatibility issue with Netty 4.1.111. Technically since it only impacts the java code base, it does not directly impact Centos7 compatibility. But because we are building C++ and Java code at the same time, I recognize that changing base OS used to build Arrow Java would impact CentOS compatibility for Arrow C++. Another question I have is how it will impact the way we link with libstdc++? `grpc-java` moved from static linking to dynamic because static linking is not supporting in RHEL/Centos8 or higher, does it mean the same for gandiva as well (which would for example require users to have c++ runtime installed on their machine)? -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
