Hi All, I am building Arrow GLib on a system where I'm not the admin. In the installation instructions (https://github.com/apache/arrow/tree/master/c_glib) there are two options for building GLib: "How to build by users" and "How to build by developers". I followed the "by users" section and met the following problem: "checking for gobject-introspection... configure: error: gobject-introspection-1.0 is not installed".
"GObject Introspection" is mentioned explicitly in the "How to build by developers" section. Does this indicate it is optional if we build as a user? I checked "./configure --help" but didn't find a way to exclude it in the build process. I've also tried to build GObject Introspection (http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/general/gobject-introspection.html) but Meson isn't available on the system... Could someone please offer a suggestion for me to build Arrow GLib? Kind Regards Chengxin Sent with [ProtonMail](https://protonmail.com) Secure Email.
