Building fails on Archlinux with error about gamenetworkingsockets HOT 3 CLOSED

Hi, i had the same issue. Abseil and Protobuf require at least the C++ 14 standard (in my case i had to use C++ 17) but the library is compiled with the C++11 standard. After uncommenting the line 268 in the file src/CMakeLists.txt and changing it to the following solved it for me.
target_compile_features(${GNS_TARGET} PUBLIC c_std_99 cxx_std_17)
I am now able to compile and use the library without any problems.

I don't know how you are getting abseil, but you appear to be compiling with a newer version than the pinned submodule in this code, at the time you submitted this bug. And I don't see any identifiers in any of that output that has anything to do with this library. So that error appears to be entirely related to the version of abseil you are using. Am I missing something?

I'm having the same issue - GCC seems to be using the system-installed version of abseil and protobuf, and I initialized the submodules with git submodule update --jobs 12 --init --progress --depth 1.
