Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name : gccgo-go Version : 1.2.1 Upstream Author : The Go Authors * URL : http://golang.org/ * License : Go license Programming Lang: Go Description : Go tool for use with gccgo
The Go programming language is an open source project to make programmers more productive. Go is expressive, concise, clean, and efficient. Its concurrency mechanisms make it easy to write programs that get the most out of multicore and networked machines, while its novel type system enables flexible and modular program construction. Go compiles quickly to machine code yet has the convenience of garbage collection and the power of run-time reflection. It's a fast, statically typed, compiled language that feels like a dynamically typed, interpreted language. .. This package provides the 'go' tool built using gccgo instead of golang gc, defaulting to using gccgo. ### The 'go' tool for the gccgo implementation of the go language would allow porting of software written in go to architectures where the golang implementation is currently not available, but the gccgo implementation is. These architectures are currently arm64, mips, mipsel, powerpc, ppc64, ppc64el, s390x and x32. gccgo-go is already packaged in Ubuntu and compiles out of the box in Debian, All that would be needed is a sponsor to check and upload it. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
