# This script builds the protoc compiler for the host platform, which is needed
# for any cross-compilation as we will need to convert the protobuf source
# files to cc files.
#
# --other-flags accepts flags that should be passed to cmake. Optional.
#
# After the execution of the file, one should be able to find the host protoc
# binary at build_host_protoc/bin/protoc.
