Wes McKinney commented on ARROW-909:
------------------------------------
hi [~abdulrahman004]. Do you have the jemalloc libraries installed in your
system? {{libjemalloc}} must be in your library loader path; having
{{libarrow_jemalloc.so}} is not enough because this is only a binding to
Arrow's memory allocator. So either install jemalloc on your system or simply
don't build that extension. We have provided for building jemalloc in the C++
libraries' thirdparty stack to facilitate cross-platform packaging (e.g.
manylinux1 for Python packages). The expectation is that it will be separately
installed on the system where it's deployed.

I guess we have to define "supported". It's hard for us to be on the hook to
debug build issues on any arbitrary platform. I added the conda build because
that's reasonably portable, and doesn't involve platform specific details (like
Linux package managers, or Homebrew). It would be great if you or other could
contribute reproducible build instructions for other platforms and package
managers. I opened https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-911 to cover
this. It would be good to have a build guide for macOS, Ubuntu 14.04 and 16.04,
and CentOS/RedHat 6 and/or 7. Since most of the dependencies build out of the
box, there will be minimal pre-requisites to install from apt-get/yum/Homebrew.
Patches welcome.
