Could not find PROTOBUF Compiler

问题

I'm trying to do a CMake with Caffe, but my system cannot find protobuf compiler. I have previously installed protobuf2.7.0. Now I switched back to 2.6.1. How could I configure my CMake to recognize the protobuf2.6.1 compiler?

I have done

$ sudo apt-get install  libprotobuf-dev protobuf-compiler
$ protoc --version
libprotoc 2.6.1

But when I try to cmake Caffe, it still gives me the error

user@user-computer:~/caffe/build$ cmake -DBLAS=open ..

回答1:

The following command worked for me.

 apt-get install protobuf-compiler

回答2:

I meet the same problem. I solved it by running following commands：

sudo apt-get remove protobuf-compiler
sudo apt-get install protobuf-compiler

I had tried to run just the second command, but it doesn't work.
