The last thing I built from source was a suckless utility which was nothing but a treat to play with and hack on, so I felt confident I could manage this even though the project's wiki page on compilation warned that it might fail on distro's other then debain and ubuntu. First order of business was translating the apt-get command for the dependencies into an emerge command that would install the same packages. Once that was done, I went on to the go dependencies which all seemed to install without a hitch except for the first one which gave this "build constraints eliminates all Go files" message but didn't tell me that the installation had failed otherwise. I spent a good amount of time trying to decipher this message which eventually turned into just familiarizing myself with go since I hadn't really touched it before before deciding it was fine. Then I tried to build it. It didn't work.
