Hi all, This patch resolves an issue I discovered when attempting to cross-compile packages that use the go-build-system. Namely, prior to this patch, running 'guix build --target=arm-unknown-linux-gnueabihf ' where '' is some package that uses to go-build-system (for example, 'fzf'), would result in the following error in the build log: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- go install: cannot install cross-compiled binaries when GOBIN is set Building 'github.com/junegunn/fzf' failed. Here are the results of `go env`: GO111MODULE="off" GOARCH="arm" GOBIN="/gnu/store/8xcs9vna6zyl814j78raynccm7mqqk0h-fzf-0.25.0/bin" GOCACHE="/tmp/go-cache" GOENV="/homeless-shelter/.config/go/env" GOEXE="" GOFLAGS="" GOHOSTARCH="amd64" GOHOSTOS="linux" GOINSECURE="" GONOPROXY="" GONOSUMDB="" GOOS="linux" GOPATH="/tmp/guix-build-fzf-0.25.0.drv-0" GOPRIVATE="" GOPROXY="https://proxy.golang.org,direct" GOROOT="/gnu/store/y5rwacd5l4q26pxis28wsmswj2603hkw-go-1.14.15" GOSUMDB="sum.golang.org" GOTMPDIR="" GOTOOLDIR="/gnu/store/y5rwacd5l4q26pxis28wsmswj2603hkw-go-1.14.15/pkg/tool/linux_amd64" GCCGO="gccgo" GOARM="7" AR="ar" CC="/gnu/store/rn75fm7adgx3pw5j8pg3bczfqq1y17lk-gcc-7.5.0/bin/gcc" CXX="g++" CGO_ENABLED="0" GOMOD="" CGO_CFLAGS="-g -O2" CGO_CPPFLAGS="" CGO_CXXFLAGS="-g -O2" CGO_FFLAGS="-g -O2" CGO_LDFLAGS="-g -O2" PKG_CONFIG="pkg-config" GOGCCFLAGS="-fPIC -marm -fmessage-length=0 -fdebug-prefix-map=/tmp/guix-build-fzf-0.25.0.drv-0/go-build219362912=/tmp/go-build -gno-record-gcc-switches" command "go" "install" "-v" "-x" "-ldflags=-s -w" "github.com/junegunn/fzf" failed with status 1 --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- The important bit is the first line, which indicates that 'GOBIN' cannot be set when cross-compiling. This has been the case in go from what I can tell for numerous years (atleast 2019). This patch removes the setting of 'GOBIN' and adjusts the go-build-systems build function to us 'go build' instead of 'go install'. Collin J.
