             Summary: Apache Arrow HDFS Remove (rm) operation defaults to 
SkipTrash
                 Key: ARROW-7805
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-7805
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Python
    Affects Versions: 0.13.0
            Reporter: bb


The Pyarrow lib (using LIBHDFS) appears to default to a SkipTrash option (which 
is _not_ the Hadoop default behavior).  This turned out to be a pretty major 
issue for a project.  The HadoopFileSystem `delete` method currently has a 
default behavior of `recursive=False` I would believe a similar 
`skipTrash=False` default would be appropriate here.

 
{code:java}
# test to prove that default hdfs behavior moves a file to the Trash{code}
