Hi, I was trying to compile the Hive master branch on AArch64 hardware. I am facing the protoc issue because in pom.xml file use the version 2.5.0 which does not have AArch64 binaries available https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/com/google/protobuf/protoc/ . After updating it to latest version 3.6.1, I could able to compile Hive master branch without any issues on ARM64 machine. I have created a patch and which is available - https://git.linaro.org/people/naresh.bhat/apache/hive.git/commit/?id=14410fbd6a3203a39f2503368c5e51dc6d11b432
My questions are 1. Why still old protoc version is being used in Hive pom.xml files ? Can we update it to latest available version i.e. 3.6.1 ? 2. How should I give the patch pull request i.e. through git-mail-send or via using github ? Thanks and Regards -Naresh Bhat
