HI, folks --

   - Platform: Linux Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS
   - g++ : g++ (Ubuntu 11.4.0-1ubuntu1~22.04) 11.4.0
   - protoc: libprotoc 23.4
   - protocol buffers: v23.4

I am very stuck in trying to use protoc to generate Python bindings using 
--python_out argument. I have also installed protobuf-v23.4/ headers in my 
/usr/include/google dir.

Am experimenting with this version and have to next try how the --pyi_out 
feature works.

The problem I have now is that the generated C++ pb.cc file is not 
compiling. The error is as shown below [1]. 

I have installed the libabsl-dev package, but am not finding the log/ 
sub-dir under /usr/include/absl .

Checking around there was some post that suggested to add these flags to 
the cc, but that did not help either: -D ABSL_BUILD_TESTING=ON -D 
ABSL_BUILD_TEST_HELPERS=ON -D ABSL_USE_EXTERNAL_GOOGLETEST=ON 

Github protocol buffer issue no.12201 
<https://github.com/protocolbuffers/protobuf/issues/12201> talks about some 
incompatibility with s/w components involving protobuf / absl etc.

My questions are:

   1. What may be the solution for this specific compilation issue I'm 
   facing?
   2. What is the stable version of protoc / protocol buffers one can use 
   to not run into this missing-header-file (absl) issue?
   3. Where are the how-to instructions to download a specific working 
   version of protocol buffer? (I had to unzip the package and manually sudo 
   cp'over the files to /usr/include ...)
   4. Is this feature support of generating python bindings using protoc 
   --python_out --pyi_out stable? (I've gone through the tutorials 
   <https://protobuf.dev/getting-started/cpptutorial/>.)
   
Thanks, in advance,
--AdityA>
