Dragoș Moldovan-Grünfeld updated ARROW-12743:
---------------------------------------------
Description:
Edit: Blocked by [a bug in
\{remotes}|https://github.com/r-lib/remotes/issues/642] which results in second
order dependencies of packages listed in {{Config/Needs?...}} not being
installed.
====================
Recent updates to the remotes package mean that additional fields can be added
to a package's DESCRIPTION and remotes functions can take the field as a
parameter and install these additional dependencies:
https://github.com/r-lib/remotes/blob/master/NEWS.md#new-functions-and-features
We could update DESCRIPTION to use these fields and update the docs to use this
functionality of remotes instead of having separate references to packages to
install.
