Description

The go port currently restricts itself to i386 and x86_64. Can you investigate supporting arm64 as well?

As https://github.com/golang/go/issues/42684 has been closed, Go now works for arm64. However, it is slated for the next release and can be built from tip of tree or backported into a release version.

On a fresh installation on Big Sur 11.2.2 on my Apple M1 based MacBook Pro 13, using macports from git, I find that attempting to install go results in x86_64 assets getting used.

Yes, since Josh just fixed it to do that in [84dd03127da4647acd1fea8d612dedde07c7e3f3/macports-ports]. This ticket remains open to track getting a native arm64 version of go.

In 1f387629e89699a2bc594cfdd0d101cbdacff056/macports-ports (master):

go: build for ARM64

Use a temporary binary distribution of ARM64 Go to build on ARM64.
For all other architectures (x86_64, etc), continue to bootstrap using Go 1.4.

See: #60942

Go has built successfully on the macOS 11 ARM64 buildbot:

Closing as fixed.
