I've updated protobuf-2.5.0-1 on x86 only so far, with libprotobuf-devel and the new libprotobuf8, required by mosh.
This is now the same version as on cygwinports. It is a feature release, adding support for "import public" and a new enum option "allow_alias" See http://protobuf.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/CHANGES.txt -- Reini Urban http://cpanel.net/ http://www.perl-compiler.org/
