Package: golang-golang-x-tools Version: 1:0.0~git20160315.0.f42ec61-2 Severity: important
The stringer program no longer understands how to import standard Go packages. For example, running "stringer -type=MyType foo.go" on the following foo.go file: ---- package main import ( "fmt" ) type MyType int //go:generate stringer -type=MyType const ( Alpha MyType = 1 Beta MyType = 1 Gamma MyType = 1 ) func main() { fmt.Println(Alpha) } ---- produces the error: stringer: checking package: foo.go:4:2: could not import fmt (can't find import: ) Running strace shows that it's looking here: /usr/lib/go/pkg/linux_amd64/fmt.a But the current golang system has it here: /usr/lib/go-1.6/pkg/linux_amd64/fmt.a And indeed, when I removed /usr/lib/go and symlinked it to /usr/lib/go-1.6 instead, stringer worked correctly. But I'm not sure if that simple fix breaks anything else ... -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (400, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.5.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages golang-golang-x-tools depends on: ii golang-golang-x-tools-dev 1:0.0~git20160315.0.f42ec61-2 ii libc6 2.22-9 golang-golang-x-tools recommends no packages. golang-golang-x-tools suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
