Lol you have to setup the necessary build directories bin,src,etc and environment variables before using golang from tarball e.g. GOROOT, GOPATH, GOPROXY=direct or you’re gonna run into issues. Golang is easily the most overcomplicated when it comes to setup the of the dev environment.
- metadat 4y agoIt wasn't always like this, in the early days you only needed GOROOT and GOPATH. Nowadays there are numerous hidden envvar toggles like GOPROXY and GOMODULES111. Even still, this doesn't seem more difficult than installing and learning how to use ninja and / or meson build.
- soraminazuki 4y agoIt's only two commands, clearly stated in the docs. No configuration required. meson setup build ninja -C build It's not like meson or ninja is an obscure tool either, contrary to what this thread suggests. They're both popular C/C++ build tools along with cmake.
- metadat 4y agoTrue.
