Current evaluation

Legacy request to add a Glide-based Go build plugin; current craft-parts uses Go modules and has no Glide support.

Suggested action: close stale

Reason: The request targets the obsolete pre-module Glide workflow, while the current craft-parts Go plugin uses go mod download all and go install; searches found no Glide implementation or related commit. With no maintainer response or follow-up, reviving this legacy workflow is not justified.

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.
