>                 Key: ARROW-7282
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-7282
>             Project: Apache Arrow
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Python
>    Affects Versions: 0.15.1
>         Environment: Arch Linux, Python 3.7
>            Reporter: Scott Gigante
>            Priority: Minor

> I get the following error when trying to open a file that does not exist.
> ```
>  pyarrow.lib.ArrowIOError: Failed to open local file 'filename', error: No such file or directory
> ```
> In my opinion, this particular error should also subclass from Python FileNotFoundError. It currently only inherits from IOError (which is a superclass of FileNotFoundError).
> ```
>  >>> import pyarrow
>  >>> try:
>  ...     raise pyarrow.lib.ArrowIOError
>  ... except IOError:
>  ...     pass
>  ... 
>  >>> try:
>  ...     raise pyarrow.lib.ArrowIOError
>  ... except FileNotFoundError:
>  ...     print('caught')
>  ... 
>  Traceback (most recent call last):
>  File "<stdin>", line 2, in <module>
>  pyarrow.lib.ArrowIOError
>  >>> try:
>  ...     raise pyarrow.lib.ArrowIOError
>  ... except IOError:
>  ...     print('caught')
>  ... 
>  caught
>  ```
