Description Jan Kurik 2017-01-16 09:43:46 UTC 
This is a tracking bug for Change: Golang buildmode PIE
For more details, see: https://fedoraproject.org//wiki/Changes/golang-buildmode-pie

Change default build mode of golang in Fedora packaging macros to buildmode=pie, which results in packages using them to produce Position Independent Executables. Another part of the change is to pass the Fedora hardened linker flags to the external linker(regular system linker). In result reducing exploit-ability of binaries.

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 26 development cycle.
Changing version to '26'.
