Previously, each `go install` upgrade would create a new versioned `go-bin-vX.Y.Z` directory and symlink `~/go` to it, effectively hiding all globally-installed Go tools on every upgrade. New behavior in pkg_link(): - New install: create ~/go as a real directory (not a symlink) - Existing versioned symlink: rename go-bin-vX.Y.Z to the stable unversioned path ~/.local/opt/go-bin, preserving all installed tools - Already migrated (symlink to go-bin) or real dir: leave untouched - Broken symlink: recreate ~/go as a real directory Co-authored-by: coolaj86 <122831+coolaj86@users.noreply.github.com>

How to run a Go program as a service
On Linux:
# Install serviceman (compatible with systemd)
webi serviceman
# go into your programs 'opt' directory
pushd ./hello/
# swap 'hello' and './hello' for the name of your project and binary
serviceman add --name 'hello' -- \
./hello
# Restart the logging service
sudo systemctl restart systemd-journald
