Can't get static build to work on windows using GitHub Actions

[sandalwoodbox]

I'm having some trouble getting a static build of gocv to work on a Windows GitHub action. I'm getting a large number of errors when I try to verify the build like:

 C:/mingw64/bin/../lib/gcc/x86_64-w64-mingw32/15.2.0/../../../../x86_64-w64-mingw32/bin/ld.exe: C:\opencv\build\install\x64\mingw\staticlib\libopencv_dnn4120.a(caffe_importer.cpp.obj):caffe_importer:(.text$_ZN2cv3dnn14dnn4_v2025061912_GLOBAL__N_113CaffeImporter11populateNetENS1_3NetE+0x17c6): undefined reference to `google::protobuf::RepeatedPtrField<std::__cxx11::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> > >::Get(int) const'

Full logs here: https://github.com/sandalwoodbox/go-cleancredits/actions/runs/20738731088/job/59541188871

Also uploading since I think that expires eventually. 0_build.txt

GHA configuration is here: https://github.com/sandalwoodbox/go-cleancredits/blob/e58575d3d740c69c6b5fa0a54bea7ad181737d6c/.github/workflows/build-windows.yml

Not sure that the static build for Windows is working. You probably need to dig in further.
