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

[Dénes Tóth]

Depending on your use case you can also take a look at the nanoarrow 
package (https://cran.r-project.org/package=nanoarrow). Maybe it 
provides all the features you need and has a much smaller footprint than 
'arrow'.

Best,
Denes
