            Bug ID: 284132
           Summary: Set GOTOOLCHAIN during all go builds
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)
          Assignee: ports-bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: rudolphfroger@dreamsolution.nl

I recently ran into an issue for a go project (Forgejo 10.0.0) which specif=
ies
a `toolchain` in `go.mod`. If this specifies a newer go version (i.e. 1.23.4
while FreeBSD ports has 1.23.3) then go will try to download this newer ver=
sion
and build it. Poudriere will however prevent this from happening because du=
ring
builds no network access is allowed. Also it seems logical that all go ports
use the go version specified in the `lang/go*` ports, and not some other
version.

Go allows one to disable this behaviour, it seems, but I'm not very familiar
with Go. See https://go.dev/doc/toolchain

It may be worth while to set `GOTOOLCHAIN` to a Go version, instead of the
default value of "auto" which causes this Go upgrade mechanism.

I also files a bug report at Forgejo, and I could write a patch file for the
Forgejo port to patch the `go.mod`. That would solve this specific case, bu=
t I
think no "USES=3Dgo" port should ever have this "auto" toolchain behaviour =
of Go,
so all builds use a consistent Go (patch) version for all ports. And that w=
ould
only be achieved by setting `GOTOOLCHAIN` explicitly.
