Details

Description:

The command "go tool trace" does not work: The web server for viewing the trace is started, but only a blank page is shown when the "view trace" link is clicked (request path is "/trace"). Turns out, the web server started internally is unable to find the file trace_viewer_lean.html which is expected to reside in $GOROOT/misc/trace, but the "misc" dir is not part of the Arch go package.

Additional info:
* package version: 2:1.8.1-1

Steps to reproduce:

* create trace file (e.g. by using https://github.com/pkg/profile)
* run "go tool trace /tmp/profile426676919/trace.out"
* wait until the browser opens
* click "view trace", see a blank page
* in the browser's console you can see that the path "/trace_viewer_html" is requested but the server returns 404

The attached patch includes the "misc" dir in the go package, which makes the trace tool usable.
   go-add-misc-dir.patch (0.4 KiB)
This task depends upon

That's correct, as confirmed by https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/golang-nuts/B7sZrDhhWfw

I think I am the one to blame for removing this folder in the first place, sorry for that :p

So, what can we do? Who can update the package?

Are there maybe other directories that are not included (but should be)?

I am one of the former packagers, Barthalion took over maintainance recently.
I cannot think of anything else missing, but who knows...

It's been only 2 days… I will take care of it tomorrow.

Oh, sorry, my comment came out too accusatory. I just wanted to see if there's anything I can do :)

Thanks for your work!
