Protoc install process #34

Open TheWizardTower opened 3 months ago

TheWizardTower commented 3 months ago

So, the golem docs mention that you need version 15+, then say "just use brew."

For those of us who aren't on Mac, we're sent to the protoc website, which has a helpful script to install it.

Unfortunately, it grabs version 3.14.

So, having a look at those scripts, then modifying them to grab a newer version, and having them in the docs would be enormously helpful.

Good point, and I should go through the whole docs and check the steps on my Linux machine when I get home. Previously only added specifics for OSX because that's much easier (not having to cover an infinite amount of different distros)

For sure. The process was made harder because I was running Gentoo, which is well outside the normal range of distros. :)
