Also, I think we need to add a try-except when PyArrow is not available, and we can also raise an appropriate exception. ```suggestion try: import pyarrow as pa from pyiceberg.io.pyarrow import _ConvertToIcebergWithFreshIds, pre_order_visit_pyarrow if isinstance(schema, pa.Schema): schema: Schema = pre_order_visit_pyarrow(schema, _ConvertToIcebergWithFreshIds()) # type: ignore except ModuleNotFoundError: # throw an appropriate error here ``` -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
