---------------------------------------

             Summary: [R] Allow string compute functions to be optional
                 Key: ARROW-11736
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-11736
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Sub-task
          Components: R
            Reporter: Neal Richardson
             Fix For: 4.0.0


The Solaris build fails to build {{libarrow_bundled_dependencies.a}} because of some mismatch of arguments to the {{ar}} command: 

{code}
[ 19%] Bundling /export/home/XnknpBn/Rtemp/RtmpBOhxfH/file66df7a592ae4/release/libarrow_bundled_dependencies.a
gmake[2]: Entering directory '/export/home/XnknpBn/Rtemp/RtmpBOhxfH/file66df7a592ae4'

{code}

If ARROW_PARQUET=OFF (ARROW-11735), the only dependencies to bundle are re2 and utf8proc. So we could either fix the {{ar}} invocation, or we could make re2 and utf8proc optional. Build-wise, they are optional, but we have some tests that call the string kernels, and we'd need to know that they should be skipped (i.e. another option in {{skip_if_not_available()}}.
