Build.log

Per the attached title.

usbguard-1.14-r2 fails to build with the following error:

error: invalid initialization of reference of type 'const std::string&' {aka 'const std::__cxx11::basic_string<char>&'} from expression of type 'google::protobuf::internal::GetTypeNameReturnType' {aka 'std::basic_string_view<char>'}

This previously wasn't an issue prior to updating in the last few days, and it built fine, even with GCC 15.

Please see the attached build.log and emerge --info.

Nothing to do with GCC, everything to do with new Protobuf.
Comment 3 Maciej S. Szmigiero 2025-04-21 20:25:28 UTC 
Confirming, the pull request linked from the issue at ${URL} fixes it for me.
Comment 4 154koz3j6 2025-04-23 12:10:24 UTC 
Can further confirm that applying the diff linked works for me to build.
