Also please add provides=(lib32-protobuf) and conflicts=(lib32-protobuf) to PKGBUILD, as is standard for VCS packages.

Also please kindly fix minor issues with pkgver() function. What my suggested code does:

  • Removes v prefix.
  • Finds all tags, not just standalone ones. (The project changed to using so-called lightweight tags.)
    pkgver() {
    cd protobuf
    git describe --long --tags | sed 's/v\([0-9.]\+\)-\([a-z]\+\)/\1\2/;s/^v//;s/\([^-]*-g\)/r\1/;s/-/./g'
}

Current versioning function generates the following version:

pkgver=v3.7.0.rc.2.r2802.g1d13b6090

Correct version as of now should be:

pkgver=3.19.4.r304.g1d13b6090

Minor, non-blocking warnings observed during build:

Configure seems to override or disregard build flags in makepkg.conf like -O2 (or in my case, -O3).

Log shows hundreds of instances of such warnings:

/usr/include/features.h:412:4: warning: #warning _FORTIFY_SOURCE requires compiling with optimization (-O) [-Wcpp]
412 | #  warning _FORTIFY_SOURCE requires compiling with optimization (-O)
    |    ^~~~~~~

There are some other small issues as well:

  • Build disregards LDFLAGS which by default enables relro security feature.
  • There is some overlinking as well (disregarding "as-needed" LDFLAG).
  • Missing custom license directory.
