--- Comment #3 from Jakub Čajka <jcajka(a)redhat.com> ---
Just to add few bits(I had it written, but you were faster with closing the bug
:))
To elaborate more 'go' binary (you mention /usr/bin, actually go tool chain
including binaries, sources of packages,etc. live under GOROOT=/usr/lib/golang
in Fedora) is "just another binary" provided by distribution and as so it
should reside in standard location(based on respective Linux distro/FHS). Plus
alternatives
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Alternatives complicates
stuff for golang a bit as Fedora ship gcc-go(which provides go binary too).
Also as you write upstream binary distribution is assuming GOROOT/GOTOOLSDIR
residing under /usr/local/go(see "go env" and rest of upstream distribution
notes), that is not a case in Fedora as you see.
In the end, if you need go in /usr/local/go/ nothing prevents you from
symlinking/copying Fedora's golang there(and adjusting ENV accordingly).
