Wayland-protocols refuses to build

Help

I’m trying to get the development working but still can’t build basic KDE apps like Okular and KCalc, because wayland-protocols produce compilation warnings and they are treated as errors:

I didn’t specify any branch, so kde-builder is just taking the master branch, I suppose. What am I doing wrong?

The issue was fixed in upstream wayland:

Thanks. I retried to build with --refresh-build. The outcome states that recent changes have been fetched from main branch, but the build still fails:

Building wayland-protocols from custom-qt6-libs (11/46)
        Fetching remote changes to wayland-protocols
        Merging wayland-protocols changes from branch main
        Source update complete for wayland-protocols: no files affected
          Rebuilding because the option refresh-build was set
        Preparing build system for wayland-protocols.
        Removing files in build directory for wayland-protocols
        Old build system cleaned, starting new build system.
        Compiling... failed (after 2 seconds)

wayland-protocols didn't build, stopping here.
[monitor process] recv SIGHUP, will end after updater process finishes.

You’ll need to read the log file and see what the new error is, then fix it.
