system-installed dependencies first and only installs dependencies which aren't
already present (when set to `AUTO`, the default).

Snappy is an exception: by default it is always linked statically, even when
`ARROW_DEPENDENCY_SOURCE` is `SYSTEM`. If your system only provides a shared
`libsnappy`, set `ARROW_SNAPPY_USE_SHARED=ON` to link against it; the library
must then be present at runtime.

These dependencies vary by platform; however, if you wish to install these
yourself prior to libarrow installation, we recommend that you take a look at
the [docker file for whichever of our CI builds](https://github.com/apache/arrow/tree/main/ci/docker)
