I’m running a DO Ubuntu 16.04 droplet and I want to build and install KCPTUN in conjunction with Shadowsocks to channel traffic from my client through UDP towards my DO server. the problem is that when I download the KCPTUN tar.gz file from GitHub and run build script it makes a lot of dummy tar.gz files for various distributions that are all empty. https://github.com/xtaci/kcptun/blob/master/README.en.md it also displays a lot of errors concerning about the absence of Go lang:

I installed the Go lang using apt install golang but nothing changed. I need help on connection KCPTUN to shadowsocks (which is configured and works beautifully).

uname : 4.4.0-36-generic #55-Ubuntu x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

please let me know if i can provide any additional info.

I have installed a few instances of this and have got it working with shadowsocks but don’t get much if any speed improvement in my typical circumstances so have given up for now. I think it’s still a bit early though it is very promising. I used the binaries from the GitHub releases instead of compiling the go code myself. You can use a json file like this with the -c option. I would wait though.
