I know Raspberry Pi is an overkill for this project but I've been wanting to build a simple burglar alarm since long and also wanting to try Go on Raspberry Pi.
You can ofcourse build from source but the process is time consuming. Dave Cheney has been generous enough to provide pre-compiled tarballs on his blog.
