How To Install golang-any on Kali Linux

Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install golang-any on Kali Linux.

What is golang-any

golang-any is:

The Go programming language is an open source project to make programmers more productive. Go is expressive, concise, clean, and efficient. Its concurrency mechanisms make it easy to write programs that get the most out of multicore and networked machines, while its novel type system enables flexible and modular program construction. Go compiles quickly to machine code yet has the convenience of garbage collection and the power of run-time reflection. It’s a fast, statically typed, compiled language that feels like a dynamically typed, interpreted language.

This is a dependency package that depends on the default Go toolchain and compiled standard library or gccgo on architectures that do not have a native toolchain (“gc compiler”) port. Because the gccgo and Go releases are not on the same schedule, it is not guaranteed that the version of the Go language provided by the version of gccgo that this package depends upon will match the version of this package.
