They should be symlinks, we have special code for this: https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/4495305092411e8551c60341e273c8aa3c14b282/python/setup.py#L489-L499 This is probably not going into the wheel as wheels are zip-files and they don't support symlinks by default. So we probably need to pass the `--symlinks` parameter to the wheel code. Uwe
