> [R][Docs] Document changes due to C++17 for centos-7 users
> ----------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARROW-17849
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-17849
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Documentation, R
> Reporter: Jacob Wujciak-Jens
> Priority: Blocker
> Fix For: 10.0.0
>
>
> With the switch to C++17 centos 7 users need to install and enable devtoolset
> (and possibly change makevars) to be able to compile the R package, even when
> using the libarrow binary (see [ARROW-17594]) but that they can use
> INSTALL_opts = "--build" to get a binary package that is installable on a
> centos machine WITHOUT dts -> offline build section. Centos 7 RSPM is an
> alternative source for that binary package.
> Also add messaging in configure or build_arrow_static.sh so that if someone
> is trying to install from source with gcc 4.8, we tell them what they need to
> do.
> This should be documented and noted in the release notes.
