[I] Python release wheels: macOS x86_64 wheel is missing and arm64 wheel is built twice [datafusion-ballista]
andygrove opened a new issue, #1608:
URL: https://github.com/apache/datafusion-ballista/issues/1608
The Python release builds in `.github/workflows/build.yml` produce two macOS arm64 wheels and no macOS x86_64 wheel.
## Current behavior
Two jobs both target `macos-latest`, which has resolved to arm64 since GitHub's runner change in 2024:
- `build-python-mac-win` (matrix `os: [macos-latest, windows-latest]`) — uploads as `dist-macos-latest`
- `build-macos-x86_64` (job name "Mac x86_64") — uploads as `dist-macos-aarch64` despite the job name
Both jobs build the same `*_arm64.whl` artifact. Nothing in the workflow currently produces a wheel with a `*_x86_64.whl` macOS tag.
## Impact
Users installing `pip install ballista` on an Intel Mac fall back to the source distribution and have to compile the Rust extension locally (which requires `protoc` and a Rust toolchain). They likely cannot install a prebuilt wheel.
## Expected behavior
The release artifact set should contain exactly one wheel per supported platform:
- `manylinux_2_17_x86_64.manylinux2014_x86_64`
- `manylinux_2_17_aarch64.manylinux2014_aarch64`
- `macosx_*_arm64`
- `macosx_*_x86_64`
- `win_amd64`
- plus the `tar.gz` sdist
## Suggested fix
Either pin one of the macOS jobs to `macos-13` (the last x86_64 runner) so it actually produces the x86_64 wheel, or use cross-compilation via `--target x86_64-apple-darwin` from an arm64 runner. The job name `build-macos-x86_64` suggests x86_64 was the original intent for that job.
