Hello,
I have updated golang to version go1.7.1 in el6. As there were several outstanding
issues with the old version(and it is no longer supported by upstream) and go1.7 brings
several improvements(see
https://tip.golang.org/doc/go1.7). It is now submitted as update
in bodhi(no build-root override)
https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/golang-1.7.1-1.el6.
Karma and testing is welcomed,
Jakub Čajka
