Description

When rebuilding Gitea v1.12 for Go v1.15.0, I get a make error.

@iamdoubz it is because of the sqlite3 support - if you dont need sqlite3 you can compile it with go 1.15 on windows

it's a windows related issue only

[iamdoubz]

Is there a known workaround?

[6543]

:( no

@iamdoubz thanks for reporting this :) Sadly we also have noticed this. I hope to report this upstream to golang itself. Could you assist me with some information that is needed for me to do so?

I require the output of the following two commands (my access to windows is limited and so I am unable to run these myself)

$ go version
$ go env

:( no

Sad day.

I would be more than happy to help.

You should be so lucky to not be so intertwined, rather hard coded, in the Windows environment :/

I am thankful every day 😆

Thanks for this information :) Once I create the ticket I'll link it here.

[iamdoubz]

Just let me know if you need anything else.

[techknowlogick]

I've just submitted: golang/go#41013

[iamdoubz]

Patch works for 1.13. Any chance you can backport this to 1.12 as well?
