Is this version of protobuf only required by Kotlin? I am thinking that maybe we can just include all those legacy libraries (and possibly JetBrains-modified ones) inside either Kotlin or `intellij-core` as they tend to be used only by those 2 projects at the moment. Thus we can really save a gr

kotlin is already bulky and needs atleast 8-9 more new pacakges and some of them are older versions, including all of them will make things more messed up when we try to update this. Kotlin 1.1.1 is not just for bootstrapping it provides the full functionality of kotlin 1.1.1. On 30 July 2018 at 1

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 lon

Yes, that Kotlin by Jetbrains. Packaging a language is quite complicated, and we are bootstrapping an older version (so the process can be a lot easier), and then we will update it to the latest version once it's accepted. Bastian Blank 於 2018年07月30日 16:58 寫道: > Please reply to the bug-report an
