I've had a similar issue in the past, but maybe not this exact one - saying that it is compiling with a different verison of protobuf is strange since we find and require protobuf 3.3.0 in the top-level CMake. I'll try to help figure this out.

Can you run sudo updatedb then post the output when you run the following:

echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH

echo $SCRIMMAGE_PLUGIN_PATH

locate libprotobuf.so
