Isn't it very strange for a user who uses Go1.18 see this WARNING?

Currently yes, but when Golang go to 1.2x, it will not.

I think if we leave this, we can expect other issues with why this warning is appearing for users that are using the latest go version. We don't want to let them think that they are using a outdated go version when they are not.

But we will never know it except we check Golang's website in the Makefile.

This actually won't build in 1.16 as this PR is now, due this file f9ea4ab#diff-93c289a98a6bd37986878061f982fad85e37b47dff818559e021216f9319a2a8 I will push changes to this branch to resolve before merging. |
