Hi!
I just bootstrapped golang-1.8 on mips64el. In order to be able to build the package successfully on mips64el, the architecture needs to be added to the Architecture field in debian/control.in, then debian/control needs to be regenerated using "debian/rules gencontrol". For some reason, the architecture
mapping for mips64el->mips64le is already present in debian/helpers/goenv.sh and doesn't need to be added.
I was under the impression that the golang maintainers want all
architectures bootstrapped from gccgo? This was the reason
mips64el support was not in stretch despite upstream support for it.
If a normal bootstrap would have been acceptable, I would have done it
ages ago.
Again I have to point out that you are *not* allowed to upload binary
debs to the archive before the corresponding source is uploaded. You
need to re-read this:
https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/ch05.en.html#porter-guidelines
Please can you actually discuss this with the package maintainers and
mips porters _before_ you do anything like this again. You should also
read the mips related go bugs filed against various golang packages.
Thankfully you didn't upload golang-defaults so a mass-build of go
packages wasn't triggered...
[On a related note, the gccgo patches for mips64el have now been merged
into GCC master]
