Thanks! I have cross-compiled it on linux/armv7 before, but I haven't tried compiling with go1.15 or on linux/armv8 yet. I'll take a look!

If possible, are you able to confirm you can use one of the latest releases to run go-chromecast? I just want to verify if it is the compiling or the runtime that is failing.

1.15 is the latest release i could find according to https://www.e-tinkers.com/2019/06/better-way-to-install-golang-go-on-raspberry-pi/

(also wanted to mention that it took an insane amount of time before the error popped up ~17mins)

reason for installing go+go-chromecast: https://github.com/stephen304/castblock#installation

That is a crazy long time. I am able to cross-compile successfully with go-chromecast successfully to armv8 with: GOOS=linux GOARCH=arm64 go1.15 build -o go-chromecast. I don't have a raspberry pi easily to test but I will push out a new release that builds for linux-armv{7,8} and hopefully you can use that rather than needing to go get since it looks like it may be an issue with Go itself.

I have added some arm releases to the latest release https://github.com/vishen/go-chromecast/releases/tag/v0.2.5. Specifically https://github.com/vishen/go-chromecast/releases/download/v0.2.5/go-chromecast_0.2.5_linux_arm64.tar.gz should be for armv8
