[pkg-golang-devel] Bug#842254: please allow to use gccgo on architectures providing golang

[Matthias Klose]

Package: src:golang-defaults

With the golang-any package it should be possible to use go architectures
providing only gccgo.  As seen in #840190, and I assume in one of the
golang-defaults bugs, there was the proposal to handle the go and gofmt links by
alternatives.  Apparently now silently removed from the golang-defaults package.
 With the alternatives approach it was easy to test build a package on amd64
using gccgo, this is not possible anymore.  Please provide an easy way to build
a package using gccgo on architectures which default to golang by default.
