Description Phil Sorber 2014-05-23 19:53:44 UTC

Description of problem:
After new 1.2.2-2 rpms for golang were updated, I attempted to cross compile a hello world for arm and it failed complaining about lack of 5g.

Following packages installed:
golang-1.2.2-2.fc20.x86_64
golang-pkg-bin-linux-amd64-1.2.2-2.fc20.x86_64
golang-pkg-linux-arm-1.2.2-2.fc20.noarch
golang-src-1.2.2-2.fc20.noarch
golang-pkg-linux-amd64-1.2.2-2.fc20.noarch

$ GOOS=linux GOARCH=arm go build hello.go
go tool: no such tool "5g"

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
1.2.2-2

How reproducible:
Easy.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install golang including the golang-pkg-linux-arm-1.2.2-2.fc20.noarch package
2. Attempt to build a hello world program with GOARCH=arm
3.

Actual results:
Error message:
go tool: no such tool "5g"

Expected results:
A shiny new arm binary.

Can you try this again with package version 1.2.2-7?

It works with 1.2.2-9 now.

Thanks.
