Hi, well, the link on "Download the archive" points to the generic dl page because pointing to the linux/amd64 archive would be wrong for anyone not running linux on amd64, right? I'm not sure why you'd expect the link to point to the linux/amd64 archive. Have I misunderstood your report? |

Hi - You know what? I was totally off base here. You are correct. My apologies. For some reason, I had though in the past that the installation instructions used the Linux amd64 link as an example. I apologize :). I can either close this or the team can. |

Thank you in advance!
What version of Go are you using (
go version)?Not applicable.
Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?
Yes.
What operating system and processor architecture are you using (
go env)?Fedora 31 on amd64
What did you do?
I tried to copy the link from here; specifically, where it says "Download the archive and extract it into /usr/local, creating a Go tree in /usr/local/go". The "Download the archive" portion is a hyperlink to the Go tarball.
What did you expect to see?
I expected for the hyperlink to be "https://dl.google.com/go/go1.13.8.linux-amd64.tar.gz" instead of "https://golang.org/dl/".
What did you see instead?
The "Download the archive" hyperlink resolves to "https://golang.org/dl/" and not "https://dl.google.com/go/go1.13.8.linux-amd64.tar.gz".
