but can't find protobuf-java rpm.

Need to obtain the protobuf jar file in order to continue migration.

Also, heard about an early version of protobuf containing a bug concerning the byte variable. Was wondering if ver 3.5.0-13 had been fixed.

Thank you very much

Currently we do not plan to have the protobuf-java subpackage in RHEL 8.

Can you use the protobuf java bindings from the maven repository? Can you give some details on how you are using the protobuf java bindings?

For further discussions please open a Red Hat support ticket and mention this bug. Thanks.
