[jira] [Commented] (ARROW-14136) [R] Cannot call allocate_arrow_schema()

["Laurent (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-14136?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17420362#comment-17420362 ] 

Laurent commented on ARROW-14136:
---------------------------------

When installing the dev version by setting 

{code:bash}
export ARROW_R_DEV=true
{code}

prior to starting R and calling

{code:r}
install.packages("arrow")
{code}

the issue disappears.
