   > Actually, scratch that. These files are evidently generated; moreover, the 
"upstream" files in the arrow-cpp feedstock are [very 
different](https://github.com/conda-forge/arrow-cpp-feedstock/tree/main/.ci_support).
   
   Yes, I was gonna say... These files control the "pinning" of various 
versions of packages whose ABI a given feedstock is exposed to.
   
   It makes little sense to try to maintain them by hand TBH. This will 
probably also play a part why you're pulling in outdated versions.
   
   
   
   > Given how conda-forge is maintained, perhaps it's time to admit that it 
makes no sense to try to maintain our own outdated versions of conda recipes in 
the Arrow repository? @h-vetinari @xhochy What do you think?
   
   It's not useless to run conda builds in CI here, but then you IMO shouldn't 
depend the .ci_support stuff. You can still pull in the compilers that 
conda-forge uses (well, except windows), as well as the most recent set of 
dependencies.
