I added your fix to go-1.8 since that seems to be the best solution at this point. Thanks for the report. |
All the dev-lang/go ebuilds are not correctly setup to handle the transition to gcc-6 when built with USE=gccgo, because gcc-6 produces a "go-6" binary, but these ebuilds are hard-coded to only attempt "go-5". DEPEND is defined as: gccgo? ( >=sys-devel/gcc-5[go] ) which matches gcc-6 However, src_compile() is hard-coded to execute: local go_binary=$(gcc-config --get-bin-path)/go-5 This causes the ebuild to fail with: go-5: command not found Reproducible: Always On my system, I converted all 3 instances of: go-5 to go-$(gcc-major-version) and everything worked perfectly. Not sure if this is the correct long-term solution.
