Jacob Scott created ARROW-1090:
----------------------------------
Summary: [Python] build_ext usability
Key: ARROW-1090
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-1090
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Jacob Scott
Priority: Minor
I believe (based on some confusing time with the build toolchain) that
* If {{ARROW_HOME}} is set, attempting to build_ext with
{{PYARROW_BUNDLE_ARROW_CPP}} will fail because {{FindArrow.cmake}} will not set
{{ARROW_ABI_VERSION}}.
* {{PKG_CONFIG_PATH}} must be set correctly for a bundled build to work.
* {{--bundle-arrow-cpp}} may not do anything (vs {{PYARROW_BUNDLE_ARROW_CPP}}),
but is referenced in build scripts.
I'd be happy to submit a PR which checks for some of these conditions in
setup.py and bails with a helpful message, and/or update {{development.rst}} to
include a wheel-building block.
