Fedora 28 : GoLang first example .

This tutorial is about GoLang IDE . About this IDE you can read more here - my intro article about this IDE.
I try to used with the platform-native GUI library for Go named andlabs/ui.
First, after you install the IDE you can check the settings on menu Settings: Using this tool with Fedora 28 is easy.
About the first install of andlabs/ui then this come with this error:
[mythcat@desk ~]$ go get github.com/andlabs/ui
# pkg-config --cflags gtk+-3.0
Package gtk+-3.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gtk+-3.0.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
Package 'gtk+-3.0', required by 'virtual:world', not found
pkg-config: exit status 1
That tell us is need to install some packages from Fedora repo:
# dnf install gtk3-devel
I used this source code to test the andlabs/ui:
package main

import (
   "github.com/andlabs/ui"
)

func main() {
   err := ui.Main(func() {
      input := ui.NewEntry()
      button := ui.NewButton("Greet")
      greeting := ui.NewLabel("")
      box := ui.NewVerticalBox()
      box.Append(ui.NewLabel("Enter your name:"), false)
      box.Append(input, false)
      box.Append(button, false)
      box.Append(greeting, false)
      window := ui.NewWindow("Hello", 200, 100, false)
      window.SetMargined(true)
      window.SetChild(box)
      button.OnClicked(func(*ui.Button) {
         greeting.SetText("Hello, " + input.Text() + "!")
      })
      window.OnClosing(func(*ui.Window) bool {
         ui.Quit()
         return true
      })
      window.Show()
   })
   if err != nil {
      panic(err)
   }
}
First time was run well and after I restart the IDE I got this error:
# gui_test
/usr/lib/golang/pkg/tool/linux_amd64/link: running gcc failed: exit status 1
gcc: error: /home/mythcat/go/src/github.com/andlabs/ui/libui_linux_amd64.a: No such file or directory

The problem come from GoLang IDE settings and andlabs/ui.
I remove and install again the andlabs/ui and now working well.
The result of this source code come with this output:

Fedora 28 : The VS Code on Fedora.

The Visual Studio Code is an editor for development and includes the features you need for highly productive source code editing.
You can use this editor with many Linux distros.
Today I tested with Fedora 28 distro version.
sudo rpm --import https://packages.microsoft.com/keys/microsoft.asc
sudo sh -c 'echo -e "[code]\nname=Visual Studio Code\nbaseurl=https://packages.microsoft.com/yumrepos/
vscode\nenabled=1\ngpgcheck=1\ngpgkey=https://packages.microsoft.com/keys/microsoft.asc" > /etc/yum.repos.d/vscode.repo'
Then use dnf to check and install this editor.
#dnf check-update
#dnf install code
Next step is to install extensions for Python, Golang, PHP, C# and more.

Fedora 27 : Fix your distro with systemctl .

This is a simple tutorial about systemctl tool and how to fix one simple error show by status. The help of this cmmand can be found with:
# man systemctl
Let's see how we can see this errors and how this working. First let's see the status for systemctl command (:
# systemctl status
The output is this:
    ● laptop
    State: degraded
     Jobs: 0 queued
   Failed: 1 units
    Since: Sun 2018-04-01 10:44:37 EEST; 58min ago

 ...
Detect the problem from list all failed units:
# systemctl list-units --state=failed
I find the rngd module is the problem. To fix this issue just use this commands:
# systemctl daemon-reload
# systemctl status rngd 
# systemctl stop rngd
# systemctl disable rngd
# systemctl enable rngd
# systemctl start rngd
The next step is reboot and check again if systemctl come with errors.
