paleolimbot opened a new issue, #38047: URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/38047
### Describe the bug, including details regarding any error messages, version, and platform. Since our initial build system, CRAN has added guidance on how to use CMake ( https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-release/R-exts.html#Using-cmake ). We are about to engage CRAN to ask for permission to download static libraries to save their check farm build time; however, I don't think we want to ask them for permission to download cmake (which we currently do if it is not found). I believe we also use `${CMAKE_BIN}` whereas the guidance suggests using `${CMAKE}` (which they may set on a CRAN builder). This would need to be accompanied by adding `CMake (>XX.XX)` to the `SystemRequirements` in `DESCRIPTION` if it is not already there. ### Component(s) R -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
