How To Install compat-golang-gopkg-3-yaml-devel on Fedora 36
Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install compat-golang-gopkg-3-yaml-devel on Fedora 36.
What is compat-golang-gopkg-3-yaml-devel
The yaml package enables Go programs to comfortably encode and decode YAML values. It was developed within Canonical as part of the juju project, and is based on a pure Go port of the well-known libyaml C library to parse and generate YAML data quickly and reliably. The yaml package supports most of YAML 1.2, but preserves some behavior from 1.1 for backwards compatibility. Specifically, as of v3 of the yaml package – YAML 1.1 bools (yes/no, on/off) are supported as long as they are being decoded into a typed bool value. Otherwise they behave as a string. Booleans in YAML 1.2 are true/false only. – Octals encode and decode as 0777 per YAML 1.1, rather than 0o777 as specified in YAML 1.2, because most parsers still use the old format. Octals in the 0o777 format are supported though, so new files work. – Does not support base-60 floats. These are gone from YAML 1.2, and were actually never supported by this package as it’s clearly a poor choice. and offers backwards compatibility with YAML 1.1 in some cases. 1.2, including support for anchors, tags, map merging, etc. Multi-document unmarshalling is not yet implemented, and base-60 floats from YAML 1.1 are purposefully not supported since they’re a poor design and are gone in YAML 1.2. This package provides symbolic links that alias the following Go import paths to gopkg.in/yaml.v3 – gopkg.in/v3/yaml Aliasing Go import paths via symbolic links or http redirects is fragile. If your Go code depends on this package, you should patch it to import directly gopkg.in/yaml.v3.
We can use yum or dnf to install compat-golang-gopkg-3-yaml-devel on Fedora 36. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install compat-golang-gopkg-3-yaml-devel.
