 To build the `containerd` daemon, and the `ctr` simple test client, the following build system dependencies are required:
 
-* Go 1.10.x or above
+* Go 1.13.x or above except 1.14.x
 * Protoc 3.x compiler and headers (download at the [Google protobuf releases page](https://github.com/google/protobuf/releases))
 * Btrfs headers and libraries for your distribution. Note that building the btrfs driver can be disabled via the build tag `no_btrfs`, removing this dependency.
 * `libseccomp` is required if you're building with seccomp support
