Joris Van den Bossche commented on ARROW-12068:
-----------------------------------------------
bq. It would be nice to avoid the packaging dependency, but I'm not sure

Basically every single package (at least the ones I am contributing to) will be
faced the same question/dilemma; it would be nice if there was an alternative
in the stdlib ..
Vendoring seems fine for me as well
