BLFS packages that use this package are: vlc, opencv, and qt6

[Douglas R. Reno]

In addition to the above list, protobuf-c uses Protobuf and protobuf-c is used by libshumate.

[Bruce Dubbs]

I found a patch for protobuf-c and it applies and builds OK. I can also build libshumate. Still working on the others.

[Bruce Dubbs]

vlc builds and tests OK.

opencv builds OK.

Arch shows 261 packages that use protobuf. Most are vlc plugins.
