A problem with go binaries is that when built with
go build
, they do not include their main module information, e.g.:See the
mod
line at the beginning above.This is a core golang issue which we will not solve here. However, we have started in previous PRs to ensure that the ldflags include
-X main.Version=<version>
, which some utilities know how to read and interpret.Those utilities include syft, and now, the utility that collects the go sources.
This PR updates our version of that utility to be able to read the
main.Version
.
