Plan 9 Install Go

This is a creation in Article, where the information may have evolved or changed.

I, install Python and mercurial (Hg)

First, enter 9FS sources in term, then CD to/n/sources/contrib, and refer to the contrib index of Plan 9 to find the Python user name from FGB ' s contrib.

% 9fs sources%/n/sources/contrib/fgb/root/rc/bin/contrib/install fgb/contrib% contrib/install-f bichued/python% Contrib/install-f BICHUED/HG

or copy the/n/sources/extra/python.iso.bz2 to your own directory, then

% bunzip2 python.iso.bz2% 9660srv-f python.iso% 9fs 9660% cd/n/9660% cat README

Then follow the instructions in the Readme to install Python. It should be noted that the setup script should be 9fs KFS before executing it, otherwise an error will occur.

II. Install Go reference http://golang.org/doc/install.html

% HG Clone-r Release Https://go.googlecode.com/hg/go

Oddly enough, the mercurial is loaded, and after executing the above command, the following error is always reported:

Later in the contrib index found in the CONTRIB/ERICVH directory go-plan9, try to use DIRCP copy to their own directory, will always report a variety of problems. After several failures, I decided to try the tar cvf $home/go.tar/n/sources/contrib/ericvh/go-plan9.

2011-02-25 Update:

In VirtualBox's Plan 9 virtual machine, follow Contrib/install to install Python, mercurial and execute HG clone go without any errors. It seems that the 9VX and the Plan9 are still very unstable. Unfortunately, the go default compilation script is written by bash, and Plan 9 only supports RC, so it seems that there will be time to study how to change Bash's script to RC.
