OK.
But it seems that libreoffice and the other ports/packages require the same
boost-* packages versions. So, libreoffice should not require to
remove them, only
to install the same from its bundle you say (?), which actually is a
download from
a distinct site as shown in my build log:

The missing "REQUIRED_BY' file should be there too and include libreoffice and
the other ports/packages for the integrity of packages database, and thus any
package management utility like portmaster.
