#17952 capturing/monitoring files from absolute paths? New discussion created by tdyas Go 1.20 will no longer ship with precompiled package archives for the standard library. See #17950. This means Pants will need to compile the Go standard library from source from filesystem paths. Even if the Go backend compiles the stdlib from the sources in the filesystem (versus capturing to a digest), the Go backend will at least still need to monitor those paths for changes so it can properly invalidate cached results. (An alternative would be to capture Go stdlib sources to the Pants cache and compile "normally".) 1. What does the Pants engine currently support with respect to files at absolute paths? 2. Any advice on how to proceed here? pantsbuild/pants
