not able to use go run

[benitogf]

I updated and now using go run fails:

# command-line-arguments
/usr/local/go/pkg/tool/linux_amd64/link: running g++ failed: exit status 1
/usr/bin/ld: /tmp/go-link-598592747/000003.o: undefined reference to symbol 'dlclose@@GLIBC_2.2.5'
/usr/bin/ld: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libdl.so.2: error adding symbols: DSO missing from command line
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

using go build and then running the binary still works tho

It looks like we need to link the dl library but I don't get this error on my end.

Can you please share the following?

• Operating system
• Compiler version (g++ --version)
• Go version (go version)

I can reproduce this on a real Ubuntu installation with the same versions of software.

The fix works on my system so please check yours.
