Unfortuantely even the latest version of Kotlin still uses Protobuf 2.x, so 
it's not going anywhere in a short time. This package will only build the Java 
libraries, everything else is stripped.

Though your suggestion works on another dependency of Kotlin, 
`spullara-cli-parser`, which is no longer used by the latest Kotlin. Thanks!
