Update Building instructions for new go versions #113

Closed 4censord closed 2 years ago

4censord commented 3 years ago

The building instructions don't work with the mentioned go version (1.6.4)

It might just be a spelling mistake: current version go1.16.4 => go 1.6.4 Released 2016-02-17, eol since 2017-08-24

But regardless i have drafted new building instructions

During my testing the latest version I could get to build was go 1.10

go 1.9 doesn't have strings.Builder needed in xenstore/xenstore.go:126
go 1.6.4 lacks math/bits in the standart lib, required to build current golang.org/x/sys/unix

This fixes the same changes as #111, I was done when i realized #111 exits
