Current evaluation

Request to add a glide plugin for snapcraft to build Go projects that use glide (glide install, go generate, go build, go install), since the existing go/goget plugins do not support glide. No maintainer response or labels beyond new-plugin; issue is 10 years old with zero comments.

Suggested action: close stale

Reason: The issue is 3681 days (~10 years) old with zero comments and no maintainer interaction. Glide was deprecated in 2017 in favor of Go modules (go mod), and the referenced example (traefik) has long since migrated away from glide. The underlying problem no longer applies to modern Go projects, making the request obsolete rather than merely inactive.

Impact: 10 Quick Win: 7.0 Staleness: 95 Complexity: 30 Confidence: 60 Support Request: 20

Issue body

Some upstream projects, e.g. traefik (https://github.com/containous/traefik/blob/master/.github/CONTRIBUTING.md) use glide to build from source. The current go (or goget) plugin(s) do not support glide. It seems like a simple glide plugin which does: glide install go generate go build go install I think this would be the general format for a glide-based install.
