Protobuf archive structure

When downloading the protobuf archives from github for releases >= 1.0.0 and <= 1.7.0 the archive is structured with com/digitalasset and com/daml folder structures as would be expected for the package names. Howver for archives >= 1.8.0 the ledger protobuf files are all at the top level, including losing the testing and admin folders.

Is this a mistake, as it makes restoring the files for use with other languages, like C#, more of a hassle?

Definitely sounds like a mistake, thanks for rexporting! We’ll look into it.

We just merged a fix at this at Fix protobuf structure for empty import prefix by cocreature · Pull Request #8986 · digital-asset/daml · GitHub which will be released as part of tomorrow’s snapshot.
