   > @helly25 you are right. Our hash differs from the release hash of Boost 
due to being a trimmed version. We do provide fallback URLs in case the 
artifactory is down and a way to override the URL as well but lack the same 
functionality in regards to the hash (outside of patching versions.txt as you 
did).
   
   Being able to also override the hash would be a fast way for anyone to 
repack the boost library themselves.
   
   Further, I wonder if it would make sense to make the necessary libraries 
available in github as additional elements of the arrow version they were 
introduced with. Then you could point to github as an additional location to 
try.
   
   Last but not least, if it was possible to provide the version.txt file, then 
ppl could very easily provide their own locations and hashes. So that ability 
would actually be the most powerful solution.
