MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for python-feather [2]: It seems not needed anymore now. 4 Feb 2021: "Feather development lives on in Apache Arrow." https://github.com/wesm/feather#feather-development-is-in-apache- arrow-now That means [community] python-pyarrow now contains the feather module. There is no more separate python-feather on PyPI either. Safe to delete. Nothing depends on this package.
