  • So, I’ve tried using Toolbox on my Debian machine. It works and it’s nice to have access to newer versions of the programming languages I use. But much like OP, I encountered a problem with VS Code in that the IDE cannot work with the compilers from my toolboxes. For example, Debian has Go 1.19 and Fedora (in a toolbox) has Go 1.21. In-between the versions a small change of the go.mod configuration file has happened, so VS Code which uses Go 1.19 cannot parse it.

    Is there a way to solve this? OP’s way of solving this, i.e. installing the IDE in the container seems like a hack. I don’t want to manage 20 different instances of VS Code.
