Building PyArrow 0.15.1 on Alpine: flatbuffers_ep error

Following the approaches outlined under C++ Development and this gist.

Dockerfile to reproduce approach and error:

RUN pip3 install --no-cache-dir \

Can you seek help on our JIRA instance http://issues.apache.org/jira? Please use -DARROW_VERBOSE_THIRDPARTY_BUILD=ON to see the log of exactly what is wrong

Note that flatbuffers_ep is gone in master branch, so I suggest you try building master and report a JIRA issue if you have any problems

Thanks Wes. Master without flatbuffers_ep builds fine in the above environment.
