Hello Alex,

continuing this here instead of StackOverflow. Can you share your source of 
conda packages: Do you use conda-forge? Can you share the output of `conda 
list` of your current environment?

What stucks me is that we have never built pyarrow on conda-forge against 
boost-cpp 1.73, only 1.72 and 1.74. We though have removed boost-cpp as a 
runtime dependency so I suspect the boost-cpp version change comes from 
packages that aren't from conda-forge but from conda-forge.

Best,
Uwe
