rpm package: adds dependencies

[gucio321]

Welcome

• Yes, I'm using a binary release within 2 latest major releases. Only such installations are supported.
• Yes, I've searched similar issues on GitHub and didn't find any.
• Yes, I've read the typecheck section of the FAQ (https://golangci-lint.run/usage/faq/#why-do-you-have-typecheck-errors).
• Yes, I've tried with the standalone linter if available (e.g., gocritic, go vet, etc.). (https://golangci-lint.run/usage/linters/)

Description of the problem

Hi, I've just updated to latest release (I'm lazy so I'm using rpm package for fedora)
When installing via dnf, it wants to add some extra packages:

===============================================================================
 Package             Architecture Version             Repository          Size
===============================================================================
Installing:
 golangci-lint       x86_64       1.54.2-1            @commandline       9.9 M
Installing dependencies:
 libgo               x86_64       13.2.1-1.fc38       updates            7.5 M
 libgo-devel         x86_64       13.2.1-1.fc38       updates            490 k
Installing weak dependencies:
 gcc-go              x86_64       13.2.1-1.fc38       updates             13 M

(it tries to install dnf's version of golang)
Its a problem, because I'm not using fedora's go (its 3 minor rleases behind upstream).

Version of golangci-lint

$ golangci-lint --version
golangci-lint has version v1.50.1 built from (unknown, mod sum: "h1:C829clMcZXEORakZlwpk7M4iDw2XiwxxKaG504SZ9zY=") on (unknown)

Hello,

We don't maintain rpm repositories, you can contact the maintainer of this package (I don't know who is it).

@ldez so how this golangci-lint.rpm gets to yoUr releases?

[ldez]

We create a RPM package but we don't provide it through an RPM repository.
I don't know how dnf handles that.

I don't know how dnf handles that.

so yes, I mean this package.
I download it and install using sudo dnf install ./golangci-lint.rpm and it installs golang as dependency for some reason (and it ditn't do that in previous releases)

[gucio321]

@ldez so there is no repository

[ldez]

outside of RPM, Go is required (diff too).

Inside the definition of the RPM:

golangci-lint/.goreleaser.yml

Lines 131 to 132 in 41bfce9

	recommends:
	- /usr/bin/go

It's just a recommendation, and not related to another package, so I don't understand how this become a requirement inside the RPM.

Just to avoid creating a new ticket for such a simple question: when do you think we can have a new release @ldez ? There was a bunch of various improvements and new features in several linters, and it'd be nice be be able to use them.
