Errors building with go version 1.7

dev

I’m running into an issue building Hugo from source with go on a new computer (well, new to me, it’s an older MacBook Air). This is running go version 1.7 installed from Homebrew.

lolian:hugo mdhender$ uname -a
Darwin lolian.local 15.6.0 Darwin Kernel Version 15.6.0: Mon Aug 29 20:21:34 PDT 2016; root:xnu-3248.60.11~1/RELEASE_X86_64 x86_64

lolian:hugo mdhender$ go version
go version go1.7.1 darwin/amd64

The first error was

lolian:hugo mdhender$ go build -o hugo main.go

I thought that I might have messed up the pull, so I tried updating. That gave errors.

And the build failed, which is expected.

Is there a better hammer than go get -v -u to start up a build environment for Hugo?

In your case I would try to vipe out the Go pkg build dir:

rm -rf $GOPATH/pkg

You could also try:

go clean

And try again …

Thanks. Got it working…
