### Describe the enhancement requested For Python wheels on Linux/macOS we are using the corresponding auditwheel and delocate. We should add [delvewheel](https://github.com/adang1345/delvewheel) to our Windows wheels. From the delvewheel GitHub Readme: ``` delvewheel is a command-line tool for creating Python wheel packages for Windows that have DLL dependencies that may not be present on the target system. It is functionally similar to [auditwheel](https://github.com/pypa/auditwheel) (for Linux) and [delocate](https://github.com/matthew-brett/delocate) (for macOS). Suppose that you have built a Python wheel for Windows containing an extension module, but the wheel depends on DLLs that are present in the build environment but may not be present on the end user's machine. This tool determines which DLLs a wheel depends on (aside from system libraries) and copies those DLLs into the wheel. ``` We are currently copying manually the following which should be taken care of with delvewheel: ``` @REM bundle the msvc runtime cp "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\VC\Redist\MSVC\14.16.27012\x64\Microsoft.VC141.CRT\msvcp140.dll" pyarrow\ ``` https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/master/ci/scripts/python_wheel_windows_build.bat#L122-L124 ### Component(s) Python, Release -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
