BUILD Issue Ubuntu 18.x Protoc version issue

[gateway]

Hi, I'm in hell right now trying to get all this neual stuff set up on ubuntu 18. I started with 16 it had issues now 18 etc.. anyhow long story short I have made my way thought torch, caffe , pytorch and have all that working. One of the software packages I'm using requires loadcaffe but when trying to build it complains about protoc which well on my system I have 2 of them and assuming both are to new to compile with.

build error:

Any ideas on what I could to to get this to compile under this situation.

Btw thank you for all your hard work!

@gateway Hi did you get a solution for this problem?

[gateway]

@vinodkkurmi I did get around it but I don't completely remember it :( sorry.. I can look at home to see how its configured later..

[Laurence-Cullen]

@gateway I am hitting the same problem, any chance you remember what you did to get past this?
