Francois Saint-Jacques commented on ARROW-7501:
-----------------------------------------------
It doesn't look like OSX is building/installing bison, it fallback to brew's
installed bison if there's one. IMHO, we shouldn't try to build them, it's ok
to ask the user/developper for build toolchain dependencies e.g. compilers,
cmake, and yacc/flex (bison).
Another option would be to graciously fallback and disable parquet if thrift
can't be compiled.
> [C++] CMake build_thrift should build flex and bison if necessary
