Fatal Python error for process exit after opening Pyarrow batch iterator

2022-08-08 Thread Alex Libman
Hi, I've hit an issue in Python (3.9.12) where creating a Pyarrow dataset over a remote filesystem (such as GCS filesystem), and then opening a batch iterator over the dataset and having the program immediately exit / clean-up afterwards causes a PyGILState_Release error to get thrown. This is

Will anti-Berkeley boycotts affect BSD Unix?
