pitrou opened a new issue, #46219: URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/46219
### Describe the enhancement requested The CMake option `PARQUET_MINIMAL_DEPENDENCY` was introduced 8 years ago in https://github.com/apache/parquet-cpp/pull/279, but it does not seem tested or documented anywhere. A [GitHub code search](https://github.com/search?type=code&q=PARQUET_MINIMAL_DEPENDENCY) does not yield many occurrences and most of them seem to be outdated. It's not obvious how Parquet C++ can work without linking to libarrow, for example. Should we just deprecate and remove this option? ### Component(s) C++, Parquet -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
