[jira] [Comment Edited] (ARROW-5165) [Python][Documentation] Build docs don't suggest assigning $ARROW_BUILD_TYPE

["Wes McKinney (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-5165?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16824239#comment-16824239 ] 

Wes McKinney edited comment on ARROW-5165 at 4/23/19 3:26 PM:
--------------------------------------------------------------

This must be a consequence of the recent change to make "release" the default build type.

I think ARROW_BUILD_TYPE=release is a reasonable default, with the comment that debug should be used when diagnosing segfaults/core dumps. EDIT: I see there is a PR already, thanks

> [Build documentation|https://arrow.apache.org/docs/developers/python.html] is great. However it does not explicitly suggest assigning a value to `ARROW_BUILD_TYPE` and the error thrown is not obvious:
> {code:bash}
> ...
>  [100%] Built target _parquet
>  – Finished cmake --build for pyarrow
>  Bundling includes: include
>  error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'include'
> {code}
> This cost me a couple of hours to debug.
> Could we include a note in [build documentation|https://arrow.apache.org/docs/developers/python.html] suggesting devs to run:
> {code:bash}
> export ARROW_BUILD_TYPE=release
> {code}
