---------------------------------
    Target Version/s:   (was: 3.3.1)

> Pandas API on Spark requires Pandas
> -----------------------------------
>
>                 Key: SPARK-40011
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-40011
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Pandas API on Spark
>    Affects Versions: 3.3.0
>            Reporter: Daniel Oakley
>            Priority: Major
>             Fix For: 3.3.1
>
>
> Pandas API on Spark includes code like:
> > import pandas as pd
> > from pandas.api.types import is_hashable, is_list_like  # type: 
> > ignore[attr-defined]
> This breaks if you don't have pandas installed on your Spark cluster.
> Pandas API was supposed to be an API not pandas integration, why does it 
> require pandas to be installed?
> In many places Spark jobs may be run on various Spark clusters with no 
> assurance of particular Python packages installed at a root level. 
> Can this dependency be removed? Or the required version of Pandas be bundled 
> with the Spark distribution? Similar for numpy and other deps.
> If not the docs should clearly state it is not merely a Spark API that mirror 
> the Pandas API, but something quite different.
