<p>Rebuilding <a href="https://packages.debian.org/jessie-backports/golang-1.6-src" rel="nofollow">golang-1.6-src/golang-1.6-go</a> for SteamOS, and I have many of the prereqs already built (go has a lot of individual packages for, reasons?). I am at a rock and a hard place. The build requires golang-src/golang-go, which I have, but those in turn depend on golang-1.6-src/golang-1.6-go, which I am building. I don't see in debian/rules or control where a binary-arch or build profile line would bootstrap this process (which I have done with Qt5 in the past). A catch-22, by what I can see. Is there any way to build this using sbuild/pbuilder without just installing those on a local system and building without pbuilder/sbuild?</p>
<pre><code> golang-src : Depends: golang-1.6-src which is a virtual package.
golang-go : Depends: golang-1.6-go which is a virtual package.

<hr/>**评论：**<br/><br/>mcandre: <pre><p>If you just want Go, gvm is a relatively painless way to set it up. If you specifically want to build Go from source, you'll want to bootstrap from go 1.4, which was written in C, and offers official binaries for major OSs</p></pre>ProfessorKaos64: <pre><p>That was my backup, to download golang-1.6-src and golang-1.6-go .debs into my package pool to build with. Thanks fr the advice.</p></pre>LimEJET: <pre><p>Isn't SteamOS just Debian?</p>
<p>You can enable the normal Debian repos using <a href="https://steamcommunity.com/groups/steamuniverse/discussions/1/648814396114274132/" rel="nofollow">this guide</a>, and then you can just get Go using apt. I'd recommend using debian.org rather than leaseweb though.</p></pre>epiris: <pre><p>I imagine you have alteady visited: <a href="https://golang.org/doc/install/source" rel="nofollow">https://golang.org/doc/install/source</a> but that is what I used to build Go from src for the first time. Since then I've picked up some scripts and make files from <a href="https://go.googlesource.com/build/+/master" rel="nofollow">https://go.googlesource.com/build/+/master</a> to build the latest Go versions. If you are stuck at a specific point let me know.</p></pre>ProfessorKaos64: <pre><p>I just used the Debian 8 backports package to build the set of packages. Seemed to work fine. Kinda stumped building docker (local or pbuilder), but that's outside the scope of this subreddit :/</p>

There's no catch-22, you can break the loop by either A) installing the binary package, or B) cross-building on another machine. B would be your choice if you were building on some new and exciting platform, which SteamOS is definitely not, so A works fine.</p></pre>
