Two quick points: * What happens if you copy the "working" binary to the "wrong" machine and run it there? Does it work? I mean, you should rule out possible inconsistencies with build systems. This means both Go and all the graph of the libraries your project uses. If you're building on each machine, try doing clean-room building. This means freshly cloning the Go source code of, say, the 1.8 release branch and building it. Then copying over the whole hierarchy of the whole branch of the dependencies from the "working" machine into a new directory which must be a Go workspace. Then building there. * This bit [1] smells bad IMO. From the quick glance I failed to see where it's used but why it's there? What happens if you seed PRNG with a constant? 1. https://github.com/go-dedup/fsimilar/blob/master/fsimilarCLICmd.go#L70 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
