Exclusively on pull requests and once on initial deployment of a s390x travis file.

Actually the error:

> $ travis\_setup\_go  
> I don’t have any idea what to do with ‘1.14.2’.  
> (using download type ‘auto’)  
> Failed to run gimme

Is a hard error. Is there an old gimme version on s390x?

The [travis\_setup\_go](https://github.com/travis-ci/travis-build/blob/master/lib/travis/build/bash/travis_setup_go.bash) seems to call [\_\_travis\_go\_ensure\_resolved](https://github.com/travis-ci/travis-build/blob/master/lib/travis/build/bash/__travis_go_functions.bash#L1-L19) and it would be the `gimme -r` returning the error `I don’t have any idea what to do with ‘1.14.2’` (happy to be corrected).

Alternately the [Failed to run gimme](https://github.com/travis-ci/travis-build/blob/master/lib/travis/build/bash/travis_setup_go.bash#L20) meaning the [Updating gimme](https://github.com/travis-ci/travis-build/blob/fb4e60db509df6293a47e0b8d9359c68d63739a9/lib/travis/build/bash/travis_prepare_go.bash#L35-L39) downloaded something other than a s390x executable of `gimme`
