Hello,
Fedora 25 will be shipping with golang 1.7.1. If you have been closely tracking the change
proposal
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/golang1.7 you know :). By now go1.7 is in
Fedora 25(and rawhide) for over one month.
To see extensive list of most important changes see upstream doc at
https://tip.golang.org/doc/go1.7. From Fedora packaging side there is now new support for
s390x, golang has been bootstrapped there.
Thanks to everyone working on this release in upstream and/or rebase in Fedora.
I don't plan on rebasing golang in any of the currently released releases of Fedora,
but if you are interesting in getting the most recent version(or any in between) of golang
you can either download binaries from upstream or you can check out my private COPR
repositories(builds are done also for EPELs)
https://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/jcajka/.
I'm also looking forward to
https://youtu.be/pZoGMXy3NKk. Unfortunately it is still
not in production in Fedora. So no official Fedora images with golang yet. So I have been
playing with fedora(23/24, x86_64 only, sorry :( ) based docker images on docker hub in
the mean time(inc. images with go1.7)
https://hub.docker.com/r/jcajka/fedora-golang/. I
would like to "make them in to official images" when it will be possible in
Fedora thanks to the layered builds.
