Description

I found a similar problem issue from StackOverflow

I am using Python 3.7 and PIP 21.0 and linux ppc64le in a cloud instance-based. I tried to install PyArrow with conda-forge but has the similar errors stated

 

Incompatible with system CUDA Driver 11.0.0

ERROR: Failed building wheel for pyarrow Failed to build pyarrow ERROR: Could not build wheels for pyarrow which use PEP 517 and cannot be installed directly

 

I want to know does PyArrow supports linux ppc64le? Even the conda page said it does, but I tried to install different versions of PyArrow but keep getting the same error. Does that mean I need to reinstall or downgrade my CUDA driver?

 

Any advice will be much appreciated!
