[Slackbuilds-users] netdata fails to build

[Luveh Keraph]

Just for completeness:

1. If one adds --without-new-cloud-protocol to the configure invocation in
netdata.Slackbuild then the build process completes successfully even when
protobuf3 is installed.
2. If one uses a netdata-1.34.1.tar.gz tarball created from the netdata git
repository as cloned with the git command that I mentioned in a previous
email, the build process completes successfully when protobuf3 is present
and netdata.Slackbuild is unmodified.  I assume things run as expected with
netdata from this point onward, but that's a different story.

The responsibility falls entirely on the shoulders of whoever is tasked
with creating the netdata source code tarball that the Slackbuilds link has
us download. I would have thought that, out of the two options above it
would make more sense to adopt option 1, until such time that the netdata
people package the netdata sources correctly.
