Description

I installed SINGA from source on Ubuntu 18.04.
All the dependencies are installed properly. The only warning in the output of "cmake -DUSE_MODULES=ON" is as follows,
Protobuf compiler version 3.2.0 doesn't match library version 3.0.0

The output of "pip show protobuf" is as follows,
Name: protobuf
Version: 3.0.0
Summary: Protocol Buffers
Home-page: https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/

Location: /home/shreyansh/anaconda3/lib/python3.6/site-packages
Requires: setuptools, six
Required-by: tensorflow, tensorboard

 

"make" terminates with the following message,
In file included from /home/shreyansh/incubator-singa/build/src/caffe.pb.cc:5:0:

#error regenerate this file with a newer version of protoc.

When pip shows that protobuf version is 3.0.0, then why is the error occurring.

I am attaching a screenshot of the terminal window.
