Package: golang-go Version: 2:1.1-1 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer,
Can you please provide go cross-compilers as separate packages? As go has native support for cross-compiling it would be very handy to not have to build all the cross-compiler ourself from upstream source. eg. we used to build CGO_ENABLE=1 ./all.bash GOOS=linux GOARCH=386 CGO_ENABLED=0 ./make.bash --no-clean GOOS=linux GOARCH=arm CGO_ENABLED=0 ./make.bash --no-clean GOOS=windows GOARCH=amd64 CGO_ENABLED=0 ./make.bash --no-clean GOOS=windows GOARCH=386 CGO_ENABLED=0 ./make.bash --no-clean clarification: this is for building a toolchain to cross-compile go executables for other plattforms, not cross-compiling the go toolchain for another plattform. idea: as from #go-nuts @ freenode, all cross-compilers can be build on all plattforms. Thus why not create golang-go-$GOOS-$GOARCH packages and let the debian arch native golang-go packages depend on the right one for each architecture.
