The things I think are kind of broken are:
We've got 7.0.0 and upstreams current version is 15.0.2.
the pyarrow 7.0.0 tests fail because it depends on a python test
library that breaks with pytest 8.0. Either I need to disable the
python tests or upgrade to a newer version.
My upgrade didn't go smoothly because uscan found also upstreams debian
watch file which is too loose and matches some other tar balls on their
distribution site.
(Though I don't know why uscan keeps looking for watch files after
finding one in debian/watch)
And you were probably right in that arrow needs to be a team, because I
have no idea how to get other the other languages interfaces packaged.
Oh and I probably need to get the pyarrow installed somewhere, since it
was stopping at the tests I hadn't run into dh_missing errors yet.
