I'm referring to the arrow-devel and parquet-devel packages, which are C++ packages. If you built the R library (using install.package) against version 0.14.0 and then upgraded arrow-devel to 0.14.1 without rebuilding the R library, you could have this issue.
I would recommend reinstalling the R package and see if the problem goes away.
