For the record, it was failing when I built heka with golang 1.4. I tried to use golang 1.3, and the build is now successful! Maybe you should change the "Installing from source" guide to say that golang 1.3 is required: https://hekad.readthedocs.org/en/latest/installing.html#from-source
I don't know what was wrong with 1.4, but I can now test Heka v0.9 on my raspberry pi, thanks! So, if some users also want to test Heka v0.9 on armhf, you can use the following package: https://github.com/bbinet/heka/releases/download/v0.9.0/heka_0.9.0_armhf.deb (compiled on a raspberry pi) By the way, is there any chance you can provide Heka packages for the armhf architecture in the future?
