----------------------------------

             Summary: [Python] build_ext usability
                 Key: ARROW-1090
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-1090
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Jacob Scott
            Priority: Minor


I believe (based on some confusing time with the build toolchain) that

* If {{ARROW_HOME}} is set, attempting to build_ext with 
{{PYARROW_BUNDLE_ARROW_CPP}} will fail because {{FindArrow.cmake}} will not set 
{{ARROW_ABI_VERSION}}.
* {{PKG_CONFIG_PATH}} must be set correctly for a bundled build to work.
* {{--bundle-arrow-cpp}} may not do anything (vs {{PYARROW_BUNDLE_ARROW_CPP}}), 
but is referenced in build scripts.

I'd be happy to submit a PR which checks for some of these conditions in 
setup.py and bails with a helpful message, and/or update {{development.rst}} to 
include a wheel-building block.
