macOS Sierra needs Go 1.7

[thepian]

I just tested Hugo with Sierra. I'm not sure what fails it is inconsistent.

20:27 $ hugo server --theme=flow-theme --buildDrafts

[thepian]

I assume this is the cause:

golang/go#16354

[bep]

@thepian could you test this with the latest Go (1.7 RC?)?

[nathany]

Could it be related to golang/go#16579? Best to test with Go 1.7 RC5 or better.

[brasilikum]

I am on the latest MacOS Sierra. Before go1.7 RC5 all my go programs broke like the one above.

Now I am on go1.7rc5. I can confirm that hugo v0.16 works without issues.

[bep]

@brasilikum that is good to know. But that means that we will have to do a release before Sierra. I'll keep this open to track that.

[brasilikum]

Still working on go1.7 RC6

[nathany]

If all goes well, Go 1.7 should be released on Monday, August 15th.

@bep Could v0.16 just be re-released with binaries compiled with Go 1.7?

[bep]

@nathany not easy (no vendoring) ... and we do have some important bug fixes since 0.16.

[nathany]

ahh, okay.

[brasilikum]

https://blog.golang.org/go1.7 Go 1.7 is released

[AbeEstrada]

After a clean macOS Sierra install, I tried to install hugo from brew it fails because of this issue.

[moorereason]

@AbeEstrada,

Yes, we know. That's why this issue is still open.
