Antoine Pitrou commented on ARROW-6613:
---------------------------------------
boost::filesystem is used in conjuction with boost::process for testing Flight
and S3FS. I don't think it's reasonable to reimplement boost::process.
Still, we can try to make boost::filesystem unnecessary if tests are not built.
