David Li commented on ARROW-17295:
----------------------------------
I really don't want Arrow to be in the position of being a defacto package
manager…I suppose we do that for the static libraries, though.
How would you get the headers in this configuration? We don't install the
dependencies' headers, so you'd need half of an Arrow build environment
regardless
> [C++] Build separate bundled_depenencies.so

> Key: ARROW-17295
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-17295
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: C++
> Affects Versions: 8.0.0, 8.0.1
> Reporter: Will Jones
> Priority: Major
>
> When building arrow _static_ libraries with bundled dependencies, we produce
> {{{}arrow_bundled_dependencies.a{}}}. But when building dynamic libraries,
> the bundled dependencies are statically linked directly into the arrow
> libraries (libarrow, libarrow_flight, etc.). This means that users can access
> the symbols of bundled dependencies in the static case, but not in the
> dynamic library case.
> One use case of this is being able to pass in gRPC configuration to a Flight
> server, which requires access to gRPC symbols.
> Could we change the dynamic library building to build an
> {{arrow_bundled_dependencies.so}} so that the symbols are accessible?
