Aw: Re: Introduction
Hi Michael,
fantastic news. I am particularly excited about your plan to bring Apache Arrow to shine. It is much needed, indeed.
I had not too long ago updated what is on https://salsa.debian.org/science-team/arrow but this needs some more work.
My comment about the dependency https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/thrift not being in Debian was wrong as someone pointed out.
My suggestion for you is to keep everything as simple as possible. I would also go as far as to only address arrow
with the language interface that you are using yourself and that you can test. Request help by the folks that run
R or Go or Python or whatever if that is blocking an upload. Maybe contact the respective Debian mailing list for
the one or other language interface with a respective request for help.
Best,
Steffen
