[R-pkg-devel] Package required but not available: ‘arrow’

[Duncan Murdoch]

If you look on the CRAN check results for arrow, you'll see it has 
errors on the Linux platforms that use clang, and can't be installed there.

For you to deal with this, you should make arrow into a suggested 
package, and if it is missing, work around that without generating an 
error.  Another choice would be to work with the arrow developers to get 
it to install on the systems where it fails now, but it's a big package, 
so that would likely be a lot harder.
