likely you're trying to use another compiler than conda forge's with a different standard, moreover your boost version isnt even up to date.

from boost-cpp-feedstock.

The 1.65 version of boost was not built with the anaconda compilers and, more specifically against the old c++ (pre c++11) ABI and won't be compatible by new builds with gcc>5

You can set the _GLIBCXX_USE_CXX11_ABI macro to 0 in the new compilers, but this may cause the opposite issue with other dependencies. The alternative is to update to a newver version of boost (1.70+) so that it is compatible with the c++11 ABI

Closing as it sounds like this is not an issue with newer Boost packages
