Installing released pyarrow packages from source currently fails with the latest `setuptools_scm`. You will see error messages like this (copied from https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/37803#issuecomment-1728490936): ``` error: subprocess-exited-with-error × Preparing metadata (pyproject.toml) did not run successfully. │ exit code: 1 ╰─> [38 lines of output] <string>:36: DeprecationWarning: pkg_resources is deprecated as an API.

Currently the fix is to ensure an older version of setuptools_scm is installed when installing pyarrow from source (`setuptools_scm<8`). Opening this issue to keep track of the problem and to ensure people can more easily find this when encountering the problem, and we can close this once it is fixed upstream (or here). -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
