What is the package providing the default env vars? systemd has DefaultEnvironment= in /etc/systemd/system.conf, but it is supposed to be used to create local overrides, and doesn't work well for this case (it's %config(noreplace) among other problems). In general setting global env vars does not work. Instead, it would be nicer to modify the go runtime to default to a coredump if GOTRACEBACK= is not set. This would cover more cases and would not pollute the environment for users who are not using go.

Re: F26 System Wide Change: Golang 1.8
I agree with Zbyzsek on this. What about to carry a tiny down-stream patch until this issue is fixed: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/18304 (https://github.com/golang/go/issues/18304) Jakub -- Původní zpráva -- Od: Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek Komu: Development discussions related to Fedora Datum: 13. 12. 2016 19:35:01 Předmět: Re: F26 System Wide Change: Golang 1.8 "On Tue, Dec 13, 2016 at 01:06:29PM -0500, Jakub Cajka wrote: > > can we enable coredumping for Go programs by default - i.e. set GOTRACEBACK= > > crash? > > > > Currently, Go terminate a process that panic and prints out an error > > message on stderr. > > > > This approach does not provide much room for automatic Go panic detection. > > It should be possible without any significant side effects apart from generating cores and traces.

Re: F26 System Wide Change: Golang 1.8
Oh drat, I was hoping for a build time configuration option: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/18304 Anyway, the env variable could be exported in the /etc/profile file which is owned by the setup package. However, I don't think it is a good idea to place it there. I would rather export it in a file from the /etc/profile.d/ directory. The profile.d file should be delivered by a golang package that is required to run go programs.
