Thanks a lot. I see that there's a PR that's been opened to resolve the encoding issue - https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/1476 Do you think this PR (if merged ) will also roll out as part of version 0.9.0, or I'll be able to pip install with the merge commit as soon as it's merged? Kind Rega

Nice to hear that it worked. Updating the docs should not be necessary, we should rather see that we soon get a 0.9.0 release out (but that will also take some more weeks) Uwe On Sun, Jan 14, 2018, at 2:42 PM, simba nyatsanga wrote: > Amazing, thanks Uwe! > > I was able to build pyarrow succes

Amazing, thanks Uwe! I was able to build pyarrow successfully for python 2.7 using your workaround. I appreciate that you've got a possible solution for the too. Besides the PR getting reviewed by more experienced maintainers, I'm thinking to pull your branch and try the building process from scr

Hello Simba, it looks like you are running to https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-1856. To work around this issue, please "unset PARQUET_HOME" before you call the setup.py. Also set PKG_CONFIG_PATH, in your case this should be "export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/Users/simba/anaconda/envs/pyarrow-

Hi Wes, Apologies for the ambiguity there. To clarify, I used the conda instructions only to create a conda environment. So I did this conda create -y -q -n pyarrow-dev \ python=2.7 numpy six setuptools cython pandas pytest \ cmake flatbuffers rapidjson boost-cpp thrift-cpp snappy zli

hi Simba -- when you say "virtual env", I want to be sure you are talking about a conda environment and not a virtualenv. Using these together will cause all kinds of problems -- occasionally mixing pip and conda installs can break conda environments, too. The ones I linked to are the generated ve

Hi, I've created a python 2.7 virtualenv in my attempt to build the pyarrow project. But I'm having trouble running one of commands as specified in the development docs on Github, specifically this command: cd arrow/python python setup.py build_ext --build-type=$ARROW_BUILD_TYPE \ --with-p
