Public bug reported: Dear Release Team,
As reported in Debian Bug #891894 "redefinition of 'SyscallNoError' when building with gccgo 8" at https://bugs.debian.org/891894, packages using an older version of golang-golang-x-sys-dev (src:golang-golang-x-sys) such as 0.0~git20170727.0.35ef448-2 would FTBFS when built with gccgo-8. Example with golang-github-alecthomas-chroma: https://buildd.debian.org/status/logs.php?pkg=golang-github-alecthomas-chroma&ver=0.3.0-1&arch=ppc64 * Before (Failed): https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=golang-github-alecthomas-chroma&arch=ppc64&ver=0.3.0-1&stamp=1519972270&raw=0 * After (Successful): https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=golang-github-alecthomas-chroma&arch=ppc64&ver=0.3.0-1&stamp=1520253070&raw=0 This was fixed upstream in https://github.com/golang/sys/commit/37707fdb30a5b38865cfb95e5aab41707daec7fd unix: move gccgo redeclared *SyscallNoError functions to a separate file Same as CL 34379, SyscallNoError and RawSyscallNoError are redeclared for gccgo builds since CL 85756. Thus, move the declarations to a gc specific file. And this fix is included in golang-golang-x-sys 0.0~git20180224.f6cff07-1: golang-golang-x-sys (0.0~git20180224.f6cff07-1) unstable; urgency=medium * New upstream version, which has gccgo redeclared *SyscallNoError functions moved to a separate file and avoids build error with gccgo-8. Many thanks to Shengjing Zhu for the detailed report.
