Bug ID: 2263999 Summary: Drop i686 support from python-pandas Product: Fedora Version: rawhide OS: Linux Status: NEW Component: python-pandas Keywords: Improvement, RFE, Upstream Severity: medium Assignee: jonathan@almalinux.org Reporter: gui1ty@penguinpee.nl QA Contact: extras-qa@fedoraproject.org CC: epel-packagers-sig@lists.fedoraproject.org, jonathan@almalinux.org, mail@kushaldas.in, neuro-sig@lists.fedoraproject.org, orion@nwra.com, python-packagers-sig@lists.fedoraproject.org, sergio.pasra@gmail.com, tomspur@fedoraproject.org, wfp5p@worldbroken.com Target Milestone: --- Classification: Fedora
Upstream has plans[0] for adding a dependency on PyArrow in the next major release (3.0). With `libarrow`[1] excluding `%{ix86}` and `%{arm}` we need to follow suit. Since a lot of packages depend on pandas, we should set that in motion now.
Even if upstream should decide not to depend on PyArrow, this effort is still worth it as a continuation of the i686 leaf removal effort[2] from a view release back. Besides, upstream has dropped 32-bit support in pandas a while back. Thus, this brings us in line with upstream.
