Build failure with protobuf 23.3

[arenekosreal]

Arch Linux updated protobuf to version 23.3 so there is no libprotobuf-lite.so.32 anymore.
However, rebuilding et against latest protobuf results a build failure. Logs can be found below:

Full build log can be found here:
eternalterminal-6.2.4-2-x86_64-build.log
Note: we are using AUR package eternalterminal with gcc13 patch applied.

Edit: There has already been a fix: https://gist.github.com/figue/8ecdf31ce7e0437efe36ad13c4aca9e5, in a word, we need to set -DCMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS="-Wl,--copy-dt-needed-entries" -DCMAKE_SHARED_LINKER_FLAGS="-Wl,--copy-dt-needed-entries" when calling cmake.

I am hitting the same error with 6.2.4 and 6.2.8 on current Photon 5.0. This used to work earlier (a few weeks ago) but a recent upgrade in Photon apparently broke this.

The workaround using the cmake options works.
