No, I meant `go install` (I have corrected my “guide”).

## Ok - thanks for all your suggestions. It doesn’t seem to matter if I run w/ @kaushalmodi’s suggestion, of @bep’s - this result is the same in both cases (and same as before):

Googling for that error gives few hits. One of them is [GitHub · Where software is built](https://github.com/kataras/iris/issues/1049).

See if that or any of other search hits for that error have an answer for you.

Also, how did you update `go`? The best way (and has always worked for me) is to:

1. Download the latest archive from [https://golang.org/dl/](https://golang.org/dl/).
2. `rm -rf ~/go` (where I had the older version installed)
3. Extract that archive (you will get a `go/` dir out of it) and move that `go/` dir to `~/go`.
4. I have set `GOROOT` to `~/go` and `GOPATH` to `~/go.apps`.

Yes - I’d already tried this…  
I suppose I can clear out my go install (`/usr/local/go`) and do a completely clean install of _go-1.11_

I’ll try that later today.

Ah! So you didn’t do a clean install… I guess that would cause that issue 🙂

if so, that would be the first time since ? 1.6 or so;

Cleaning out ~/go … is more work, since i have built things there I use. I can move it, and fix that, but… no time for that kind of baby-sitting work at the moment. Later. I’ll ping w/ results later, when I get back to it.

Ok - wiping out `/usr/local/go` and doing a fresh install there is what it took (I did not need to wipe out my `~/go`).

Following that, `go install` from the cloned `github` directory just worked. (also worked on a fresh `~/go`, but that was not necessary).

Thanks for all your pointers!
