Go get: gccgo:error No such file or directory

Getting Help

Hello,

I have been having problems trying to use the go get [package] command.

How I installed Go: apt-get gccgo-go

I have install this version of go: go version xgcc (Ubuntu 4.9.3-0ubuntu4) 4.9.3 linux/amd64

I want to install monstache: a go deamon for mongodb and elasticsearch: https://github.com/rwynn/monstache#files

However, when I run: go get github.com/rwynn/monstache this error is generated:

I am new to Go so I don’t know what I’m doing wrong.

Thanks.
AJ

Unless there’s some specific reason why you need to use GCCgo instead of normal Go, I’d suggest using the normal Go compiler.

I’d second this. Unless you have a strong reason, I recommend the official releases from the golang.org website. They are extremely well tested, known to work well on all supported systems, and are always up to date.
