@willie-yao hey! I'm playing with #1731
And we have this failure:

38.17 # sigs.k8s.io/controller-runtime/pkg/cache
38.17 /go/pkg/mod/sigs.k8s.io/[email protected]/pkg/cache/cache.go:412:58: fields.Selector does not implement comparable
38.17 /go/pkg/mod/sigs.k8s.io/[email protected]/pkg/cache/cache.go:442:20: fields.Selector does not implement comparable
38.17 note: module requires Go 1.20

I was wondering if you have faced this one too when you bumped controller-runtime.

[willie-yao]

Looks like you need to upgrade the Go version to 1.20. @mboersma is working on the upgrade over on CAPZ. Have you faced an issue like this Matt?

[mboersma]

I haven't seen this particular issue in upgrading CAPZ, but that project is already using Go 1.20. I think you're right @willie-yao that the compiler version may be the issue.

For comparison, the CAPZ PR is now passing (except for one flake): kubernetes-sigs/cluster-api-provider-azure#4182

[EmilienM]

We bumped Go to 1.20.10 today via #1740 - next step is to make CAPI v1.6.0-beta working in current CAPO. I'll keep you posted.
