[qt5-webengine] Build failure on x64-linux-dynamic

[rremilian]

Operating system

Linux

Compiler

GCC

Steps to reproduce the behavior

./vcpkg install --triplet=x64-linux-dynamic

Failure logs

When I try to install qt5-webengine, I receive this error:

../../../../src/5.15.15-8f39ffe797.clean/src/3rdparty/chromium/gpu/command_buffer/service/program_manager.cc:623:25: error: ‘using StringPiece = class absl::string_view’ {aka ‘class absl::string_view’} has no member named ‘as_string’
  623 |   return output + input.as_string();

I encountered this issue after I updated the baseline in my vcpkg.json manifest file. The version of all qt5-* packages is overridden to 5.15.15 in my manifest file.

Do you have any idea what might cause this ?

Thanks.

In the meantime, I created a patch for it and created a custom port for testing (found this similar issue: abseil/abseil-cpp#345)

absl-string.patch

It goes past the initial error, but I encounter another similar error a bit later:

Later Edit: These lines were changed in the version 5.15.16 to source_ = re2::StringPiece(source.data(), source.size());.
I will try a build with version 5.15.16. The issue with as_string is still present in 5.15.16.
