FYI, I've already posted a Go packaging guidelines update that removes most of those scripts and conditionals, and will post soonish a spec dump that implements those updates on a ~420 spec set, and updates the golang core to current golang/x/foo, current APIs for most cloud services, current grpc, all with mostly complete unbundling and working inter-package autodeps. To give an idea of the cope, I count 489 Go source packages in Fedora right now. So that's a reboot weighting 86% the Fedora Go universe, even though it's an overlapping set, not a subset of what's in Fedora (I could publish it sooner if people are interested in contributing to finishing up the bootstrap, the big item not completely done is moby and its deps) And then that will be a take it or leave it, if no one's interested I'll finish my private Fedora/EL Go fork and forget about the crumbling state of Go in Fedora. And people can continue to bikeshed if using a variable named commit to hold the commit hash is ok or not. I'm certainly not interested in this conversation anymore.
