hello gophers,

We have just released Go versions 1.12.3 and 1.11.8, minor point releases.

These releases fix an issue where using the prebuilt binary releases on older versions of GNU/Linux led to failures when linking programs that used cgo.

Only Linux users who hit this issue need to update.

You can download binary and source distributions from the Go web site:

To compile from source using a Git clone, update to the release with “git checkout go1.12.3” and build as usual.

cheers,
Andy for the Go team
