-----------------------------------------
[~jorisvandenbossche] is this something we need to ship with 4.0?
> [Python] Remove direct usage of pandas' Block subclasses
> --------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARROW-12057
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-12057
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Python
> Reporter: Joris Van den Bossche
> Assignee: Joris Van den Bossche
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 4.0.0
>
>
> The {{CategoricalBlock}} was removed in pandas
> (https://github.com/pandas-dev/pandas/pull/40527), which breaks the nightly
> tests.
> I will argue in pandas to add it back on the short term
> (https://github.com/pandas-dev/pandas/issues/40226#issuecomment-804903010),
> but we should still remove the direct use of those Block subclasses in
> pyarrow.
