Source: golang Version: 1.4.2-2 Severity: wishlist It would be nice to have Go on arm64. Upstream has it. According to https://github.com/golang/go/milestones they are aiming to release 1.5 around Jul 31 so perhaps you'll want to wait till then, or perhaps a 1.5~pre would be a good idea at some point.
If anyone is keen for a preview, the following recipe seems to work. However, I have not checked it on any other architectures and I have not checked the upstream issue tracker to see if this version has any known major problems. Also, check the attached patch for "xx". # Refer to http://build.golang.org/ and pick a commit that did not # fail any critical tests, for example 71274e485715. # On a Debian system which has golang, for example amd64: sudo apt-get build-dep golang sudo apt-get install golang git mkdir /tmp/go1 cd /tmp/go1 git clone https://go.googlesource.com/go cd go/src git checkout 71274e485715 export GOROOT_BOOTSTRAP=/usr/lib/go GOOS=linux GOARCH=arm64 ./bootstrap.bash scp ../../go-linux-arm64-bootstrap.tbz ... # On a Debian unstable arm64 system: sudo apt-get build-dep golang sudo apt-get install golang git mkdir /tmp/go1 /tmp/go2 cd /tmp/go1 tar xjf .../go-linux-arm64-bootstrap.tbz cd /tmp/go2 wget http://http.debian.net/debian/pool/main/g/golang/golang_1.4.2-2.debian.tar.xz git clone https://go.googlesource.com/go cd go git checkout 71274e485715 tar xJf ../golang_1.4.2-2.debian.tar.xz patch -p1 < .../golang-1.5~pre20150504-1.patch export GOROOT_BOOTSTRAP=/tmp/go1/go-linux-arm64-bootstrap debian/rules gencontrol dpkg-buildpackage -b A slight problem with this recipe is that you must set GOROOT_BOOTSTRAP. Even if you have built and installed golang_1.5~pre20150504-1_all.deb, if you want to rebuild it using this recipe you have to set GOROOT_BOOTSTRAP=/usr/lib/go before running dpkg-buildpackage -b. Presumably that wouldn't happen on a buildd. So for this recipe to become a source package this would have to be fixed. Perhaps the fix is to add a line in debian/rules to set GOROOT_BOOTSTRAP, but I'm not sure about the right way to do it.
