Why incompatibilities

What is the reason for the incompatibility

[chenyu1990]

go build -ldflags="-H windowsgui -linkmode internal"

@chenyu1990 unfortunately -linkmode internal causes other problems if you use cgo to bring in other C libraries.

Regarding the rsrc merge failure error, I found the fix for that problem here: josephspurrier/goversioninfo#39

Now I'm just trying to figure out how to work around the i386 incompatibility error.

[cryptonote-social]

Ahah, for the incompatibility error, use the -arch amd64 flag with that patched version of rsrc:

rsrc -arch amd64 -manifest test.manifest -o rsrc.syso

Hello, I would like to delete my forks of rsrc and goversioninfo as my quick fix was rather bad. The bug has been properly fixed in rsrc, and I have developed my own tool too for more features: https://github.com/tc-hib/go-winres
