> Apache Brooklyn is receiving a code for a new CLI tool [1], at https://github.com/apache/brooklyn-client. Assuming the vote passes we will need to set up a build process for the tool.  This requires Go 1.6 with cross compiler support.  We haven’t merged the pr that needs this yet but from looking at https://github.com/apache/infrastructure-puppet/ it appears Jenkins is using standard trusty golang packages which are Go 1.2.
> This is a request to start the process to install Go 1.6 on appropriate Jenkins build servers.
> I have successfully built the CLI tool once Go was installed following the process below on a fresh Ubuntu Trusty:
> 1. Remove any existing Golang packages.
> 2. To get Go 1.6 I followed the instructions on the page [2] and link to [3], and added the following to /etc/apt/sources.list:
> deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-lxc/lxd-stable/ubuntu trusty main
> deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-lxc/lxd-stable/ubuntu trusty main
> 3. apt-get update
> 4. apt-get install golang
> (I also had to install git and maven)
> This allowed me to build the code once I had fetched it from Github. (Noting here for completeness that we need cross compiler support, but the above  process allowed the build to succeed even without explicitly installing the cross-compiler packages golang-go-*-{386,amd64,arm}, to my surprise.)
> Apologies in advance if I've misread the manifest and this is all already available, or if I'm not following the right process here, I'm kinda new to this.
