Issue might happen import PyArrow

Depending on your Linux OS, especially with Ubuntu, you might run into issue like, when you installed pyarrow by conda install

>>> import pyarrow
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/home/dv6/anaconda3/envs/spark/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pyarrow/__init__.py", line 54, in <module>

I have avoided the issue with pip install pyarrow --user, after conda uninstall
