On Linux aarch64, I’m getting this compile error despite ld being available:

collect2: fatal error: cannot find ‘ld’
gcc is forcing -fuse-ld=gold, but the gold linker isn’t present on the CI system that Flathub uses to package Flatpak applications. I heard from a Flathub contributor it’s Go bug that isn’t fixed in the latest version yet.
Is there any way I can force Go to use a different linker that is present on the system? I don’t have programming experience with Go, I’m just trying to package the Rclone binary as a dependency of my Flathub application, so any pointers are appreciated.
