Upgrading minimum Go version?

[John Meinel]

Given how often people still use "--upload-tools" for things like private
clouds (and is definitely the one used for local provider), I'd really
worry about having a jujud on your local machine that wasn't built with the
same toolchain as the one you get from "juju bootstrap" in other cases.
Very easy to end up with hard to understand/reproduce bugs.
