This is a proposed Change for Fedora Linux.
This document represents a proposed Change. As part of the Changes
process, proposals are publicly announced in order to receive
community feedback. This proposal will only be implemented if approved
by the Fedora Engineering Steering Committee.


== Summary ==
Update of Go (golang package) to the upcoming version 1.23 in Fedora 41.

== Owner ==
* Name: [[User:alexsaezm| Alejandro Sáez Morollón]]
* Email: asm@xxxxxxxxxx


== Detailed Description ==
Update of Go (golang package) to the upcoming version 1.23 in Fedora
41. Go 1.23 is expected to be released in
[https://tip.golang.org/doc/go1.23 August 2024]. A mass rebuild of all
of the dependent packages is required.

== Feedback ==
No feedback yet.

There is an [https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/thread/ZQROWTMARIUS45KIQZIUNAA45K3NWLRW/
ongoing conversation] about removing a patch and revert to the
defaults a couple of variables.

== Benefit to Fedora ==
Up-to-date and latest Go release will be delivered to Fedora users.
Being close to upstream allows us to avoid security issues and provide
more up-to-date features. Therefore, Fedora will be providing a
reliable development platform for the Go language and projects written
in it.

For a complete list of changes, see upstream change notes at
https://tip.golang.org/doc/go1.23

== Scope ==
* Proposal owners:
Rebase Golang package in Fedora 41, and help resolve possible issues
found during package rebuilds.

* Other developers:
Fix possible issues, with help from Golang maintainers.

* Release engineering: [https://pagure.io/releng/issues #Releng issue number]
Rebuild of dependent packages as part of planned mass-rebuild.

* Policies and guidelines: N/A (not needed for this Change)

* Trademark approval: N/A (not needed for this Change)

* Alignment with the Fedora Strategy:
It doesn't align directly with the current objectives, but it helps
maintain the quality of the project.

== Upgrade/compatibility impact ==
No upgrade or compatibility impact.

== How To Test ==
# Install golang 1.23 from rawhide and use it to build your
application(s)/package(s).
# Perform a scratch build against rawhide.
# Your application/package built using golang 1.23 should work as expected.

== User Experience ==
Users will have a newer version of Go, with new features described in
the release notes and security fixes.

== Dependencies ==
<pre>
dnf repoquery -q  --releasever=rawhide --disablerepo='*'
--qf='%{name}' --enablerepo=fedora-source --enablerepo=updates-source
--enablerepo=updates-testing-source --archlist=src --whatrequires
'golang'
dnf repoquery -q  --releasever=rawhide --disablerepo='*'
--qf='%{name}' --enablerepo=fedora-source --enablerepo=updates-source

--qf='%{name}' --enablerepo=fedora-source --enablerepo=updates-source
--enablerepo=updates-testing-source --archlist=src --whatrequires
'go-rpm-macros'
</pre>
<pre>
Omitted due to the number of packages listed: ~2000.
</pre>

== Contingency Plan ==
* Contingency mechanism: Revert to Go 1.22.X if significant issues are
discovered
* Contingency deadline: Beta freeze
* Blocks release? No


== Documentation ==
https://tip.golang.org/doc/go1.23
