Yeah, building Golang based command line tools is a big bag of pros and cons. There are so many libraries out there for Ruby and Python but having to manage packaging applications written in those languages can be kind of annoying.

Python and Ruby really shine for scripting when the OS already has the packages installed. Otherwise not so much and a mostly self contained binary like Go produces would be better.
