Detailed Description

Rebase of Golang package to upcoming version 1.8 in Fedora 26. Golang 1.8 is schedule to be released in Feb. Due to current nature of Go packages, rebuild of dependent package will be required to pick up the changes.

This will include implementing possibility to change default GOTRACEBACK level at buildtime(including reflection in to the packaging macros and guideline draft), improving inter-operation with ABRT.

Benefit to Fedora

Staying closely behind upstream by providing latest release of golang, which includes performance improvements among other bug fixes and new features. For complete list of changes see upstream change notes at https://tip.golang.org/doc/go1.8 . In result Fedora will be providing solid development platform for Go language.

Scope

• Proposal owners: Rebase golang package in f26, help with resolving possible issues found during package rebuilds. Implement downstream GOTRACEBACK level setting at build time.

• Other developers: fix possible issues

• Release engineering: As there is scheduled mass-rebuild, nothing should be required.
  • List of deliverables: N/A

• Policies and guidelines: N/A

• Trademark approval: N/A
