I cant get this to build on a new install of Manjaro. The final part of the log is:

Aborting...
Hey, worked great until around yesterday. Seems like protobuf was upgraded to v25 which leads to the following error when trying to start a vpn session:
net.openvpn.v3.sessions[5150]: /usr/libexec/openvpn3-linux/openvpn3-service-sessionmgr: error while loading shared libraries: libprotobuf.so.24: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Hi @bhyoo Updated. Your pkg works like a charm. Thank you.

Because the origin source code does not support upstream glib2, this package delivers statically compiled glib2 2.74.6 within binary starting from 21-1. Please give any feedback if it does not work.
@LGXerxes,
paru --sync --rebuild openvpn3
helped in my case. Relevant issue: https://github.com/OpenVPN/openvpn3-linux/issues/97
Is there anything I can do about this?
openvpn3 session-start --config ./client.ovpn 9s
** ERROR ** Failed preparing proxy: Error calling StartServiceByName for net.openvpn.v3.sessions: Launch helper exited with unknown return code 127
I'm majorly struggling with this libprotobuf issue-
openvpn3 session-start --config <my config>
net.openvpn.v3.sessions[206260]: /usr/libexec/openvpn3-linux/openvpn3-service-sessionmgr: error while loading shared libraries: libprotobuf.so.23: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I've tried:
1. Switching between openvpn3 and openvpn3-git
2. Symlinking a newer libprotobuf.so to libprotobuf.so.23
3. Downgrading glib2
All with no success. Would greatly appreciate some debugging help. Thanks!
Add automake to the build dependenices.

If you have trouble with building it, please run
yay -Sccoryay -Sc.FYI. I replaced
gdbuspp-gitwithgdbusppin the PKGBUILD dependency, and it seems that the build fails because the locally cached PKGBUILD is not updated.
