Ben, Thank for the help. I got it working after changing a few hard coded version numbers. One thing that breaks is that protobuf 2.5 expects the user to do a "$ python setup.py build" to build the python which is not needed for protobuf 2.4.1 (compare protobuf-xxx/python/README.txt).
I couldn't find where to put this in the Makefile therefore I just manually ran that command. It's probably not important but it's great if anyone can point out the corresponding code in Makefile Li On Tue, Aug 20, 2013 at 11:15 AM, Benjamin Hindman < [email protected]> wrote: > Li, > > I know that libprocess has been built with protobuf 2.5.
