Hi mosh-devel,
I've observed that Google Protobuf has made some incompatible
changes between v2.5 and 2.6.1.
When I built mosh for Solaris (internal testing / evaluation
work), I used 2.5 and all seemed well. I built it again today
using 2.6.1 - and again, all seems ok, but the protobuf generated
Hi James,

https://github.com/google/protobuf/blob/master/CHANGES.txt#L187, there
are no wire-level differences. As long as mosh builds, it should
stil=l be compatible across protobuf versions. I recently rebuilt
Fedora's mosh to work against libprotobuf.so.9, which IIRC is 2.6.
Hi Alex,
thankyou for the quick and reassuring response.
btw, is there a test suite to help confirm the hypothesis?

Good question!
We have a (small) crypto-focused test suite that gets run from "make check"
and as part of building the Debian/Ubuntu packages (and possibly
Fedora/EPEL?), but it doesn't test protocol interoperability among versions
of mosh that were compiled differently.
It would be great to do a
