Uwe L. Korn created ARROW-189:
---------------------------------
Summary: C++: Use ExternalProject to build thirdparty dependencies
Key: ARROW-189
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-189
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: C++
Reporter: Uwe L. Korn
My main incentive here is that I want to have a Python sdist that can be
installed with a simple `pip install ./dist/pyarrow.tar.gz` (so we could
provide source distributions on PyPI). This will still let the install of
pyarrow depend on CMake but at least we would have the ability of a source
distribution.
