Roland Weber commented on ARROW-12085:
--------------------------------------

At the moment, building libarrow for Arrow 3.0.0 at installation time fails. A 
downloaded {{cmake}} for x86 is called, which cannot be executed on the ppc 
platform. However, that error is silently ignored, the installation continues.

Building of {{arrow.so}} and installing the R code works. I'm calling 
install.packages in a conda environment that has pyarrow and arrow-cpp already 
installed. After installing the matching Arrow 3.0.0 from CRAN, I can load and 
use it. Passing data between the R API and the Python API via reticulate works, 
too.

If it helps, I can collect some installation log output.

Something to keep in mind for the ppc platform is that there are different 
system page sizes in use. The arrow builds from conda-forge don't work on 
RedHat because of that.
