> [@lscheilling](https://github.com/lscheilling) are you able to pin your PyArrow version to <21.0.0 or are there features in 21.0.0 you need? > > I think it's hard for us as open source maintainers to plan around a distro that repeatedly moves their EOL date like this. It's unfortunate that [dropping support for manylinux2014](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/46959) happened within a single release as it didn't give us a chance to do much press about it. > > [@pitrou](https://github.com/pitrou) as we work on [#46002](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/46002), I wonder if we could include language about spreading support changes out over a few releases, similar to how we do for code deprecations (e.g., announce dropping a platform n-2 releases out in release blog post, drop platform in release n). We are able to do that fortunately and that has been our temporary fix until we upgrade distro version on our end, it's becoming more common with other projects too so perhaps it is a sign to push forward upgrades to newer distros -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
