Description-en: Go programming language compiler, linker, compiled stdlib
The Go programming language is an open source project to make programmers more
productive. Go is expressive, concise, clean, and efficient. Its concurrency
mechanisms make it easy to write programs that get the most out of multicore
and networked machines, while its novel type system enables flexible and
modular program construction. Go compiles quickly to machine code yet has the
convenience of garbage collection and the power of run-time reflection. It's a
fast, statically typed, compiled language that feels like a dynamically typed,
interpreted language.
.
This is a dependency package that depends on the default Go toolchain and
compiled standard library. It is only built on architectures that have a
native toolchain ("gc compiler"). Packages that want to build with whichever
of gc or gccgo is available should depend on golang-any.
