[oi-dev] Go 1.6.2 available

[Aurélien Larcher]

Hi,
yesterday Go 1.6.2 was pushed to Hipster: this is a vanilla install without
extra package.

helios> go version
go version go1.6.2 solaris/amd64

Our oi-userland component:

https://github.com/OpenIndiana/oi-userland/tree/oi/hipster/components/developer/golang-16

is based on the component from solaris-userland and benefit from their
porting effort on Go 1.5. Warm thanks go to them, as their work makes Go
possible on OpenIndiana.

The Go distribution is installed in /usr/lib/golang-16 and /usr/bin/go is a
symlink.
As mentioned, it does not come with extra-package: if there is interest,
they can be added to oi-userland but we need to think about adding
Makefiles specific to Go packages.

Thanks to Sergey and Adam for reviewing, testing and contributing fixes to
the component.
Best regards

Aurélien
