Antoine Pitrou commented on ARROW-16747: ---------------------------------------- cc [~jorisvandenbossche] > [CI][Release][Python] Drop support for manylinux 2010 > ----------------------------------------------------- > > Key: ARROW-16747 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-16747 > Project: Apache Arrow > Issue Type: Task > Components: Continuous Integration, Python > Reporter: Raúl Cumplido > Priority: Major > Fix For: 9.0.0 > > > There seemed to be consensus on this mailing list thread to drop support for > Manylinux 2010. > [https://lists.apache.org/thread/dfsvcsmrmktgnqz9fyc9ym33zldwklyx] > This ticket is to track it. The following was the main rationale to do it > copied from the mail: > CentoOS 6, on which the manylinux2010 image is based, has been EOL for over > two years [1]. > There is now also an official announcement by pypa that > manylinux2010 support will be dropped sometime in 2022 [2] that has not > received any feedback on either Github or Discourse. Since the announcement > the percentage of affected users has dropped from ~7% to ~4% of Python 3.7 > users [3]. ~52% of pyarrow users are on 3.7 so only ~2% of pyarrow users > [4] would potentially be affected by an issue fixed by updating pip [5]. > We have already had several CI issues with the manylinux2010 builds that > required workarounds. There are now also issues with verification as there > are no aarch64 wheels for manylinux2010 [6]. > [1]: > [https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/errata/#Life_Cycle_Dates] > [2]: [https://github.com/pypa/manylinux/issues/1281] > [3]: [https://mayeut.github.io/manylinux-timeline/] > [4]: [https://pypistats.org/packages/pyarrow] > [5]: [https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/news/#v19-3] > [6]: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-16476 > -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.7#820007)
