Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by locating the project's PyArrow dependency constraint and checking how dependency compatibility is tested; done means the constraint accepts the latest stable PyArrow 17 release while preserving the stated 3.3.0 requirement, with the relevant tests passing.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

We need pyarrow 17 in one of our projects, because of other dependency constraints. However, we also need 3.3.0, because we are facing unstable database connections with this library's version < 3. So it'd be lovely to relax the dependency on Pyarrow < 17 to include the latest stable version of 17.
