Post #3508458

currently trying to update opencv in chimera to the new 5.x branch and lol so they removed some component from the dnn (neural network shit) module but since some code from that was cross-used in other stuff (some tensorflow/onnx i/o shitfuckery i don't care about) they left in a bunch of code generated by protobuf as a part of the "cleanup" which has resulted in opencv 5 being unbuildable unless you have a particular old version of protobuf the files were generated with, because source files generated by protoc are inherently tied to the version of libprotobuf you have building with protobuf -> you run into this thing getting in your way by not building building without protobuf -> it fails because unrelated sources try to include files that get generated only when using protobuf getting a feeling that the entire machine learning field is a bunch of worthless shitslop as i've yet to see any good software come out of it
