The current instructions for building the pyarrow python extension are incomplete.

Problems include:

  • missing re2, llvm, clang prerequisites

  • missing info on how the build commands to different MSVC toolsets

  • missing warning about currently broken Windows build config

    The linked PR amends the python developer documentation with above.
