“unrecognized import path” with go get

Question

I\'m trying to install a web.go, but running go get github.com/hoisie/web returns

package bufio: unrecognized import path \"bufio\"         


        

Answer 1

I installed Go with brew on OSX 10.11, and found I had to set GOROOT to:

/usr/local/Cellar/go/1.5.1/libexec

(Of course replace the version in this path with go version you have)

Brew uses symlinks, which were fooling the gotool. So follow the links home.
