> If we provide .deb and .rpm packages for C++ Arrow, users can install it easily. (At least, I'm happy as an user.)
> Is there any location to provide .deb and .rpm packages? If it doesn't exist, how about using https://packagecloud.io/ with "Open Source plan"? We can find "Open Source plan" by clicking "Looking for free or open-source plans" at https://packagecloud.io/pricing .
