I can't build golang due to cycle problem. ### What version of Go are you using (`go version`)? The version on my pc is go version go1.7.1 darwin/amd64, but i downloaded a fresh version from git.
### What operating system and processor architecture are you using (`go env`)? ``` GOARCH="amd64" GOBIN="" GOEXE="" GOHOSTARCH="amd64" GOHOSTOS="darwin" GOOS="darwin" GOPATH="/Users/voxsim/Projects/go" GORACE="" GOROOT="/usr/local/Cellar/go/1.7.1/libexec" GOTOOLDIR="/usr/local/Cellar/go/1.7.1/libexec/pkg/tool/darwin_amd64" CC="clang" GOGCCFLAGS="-fPIC -m64 -pthread -fno-caret-diagnostics -Qunused-arguments -fmessage-length=0 -fdebug-prefix-map=/var/folders/bt/fmr6z5wx2b9b2x9w51y2m_300000gn/T/go-build667588921=/tmp/go-build -gno-record-gcc-switches -fno-common" CXX="clang++" CGO_ENABLED="1" ``` ### my env variables Apple_PubSub_Socket_Render=/private/tmp/com.apple.launchd.dJIR793aPj/Render COLORFGBG=7;0 ITERM_PROFILE=Default XPC_FLAGS=0x0 PWD=/Users/voxsim/Projects/go/src SHELL=/bin/zsh SECURITYSESSIONID=186ee TERM_PROGRAM_VERSION=3.0.10 TERM_PROGRAM=iTerm.app PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/Users/voxsim/.bin:/Users/voxsim/gopath/bin COMMAND_MODE=unix2003 TERM=xterm-256color HOME=/Users/voxsim TMPDIR=/var/folders/bt/fmr6z5wx2b9b2x9w51y2m_300000gn/T/ USER=voxsim XPC_SERVICE_NAME=0 LOGNAME=voxsim ITERM_SESSION_ID=w0t2p1:22F762D5-BC47-4939-B825-1E5B2A641E1F __CF_USER_TEXT_ENCODING=0x1F5:0x0:0x0 SHLVL=1 OLDPWD=/Users/voxsim/Projects/go ZSH=/Users/voxsim/.oh-my-zsh GOPATH=/Users/voxsim/gopath EDITOR=nvim DISABLE_AUTO_TITLE=true PAGER=less LESS=-R LSCOLORS=Gxfxcxdxbxegedabagacad ZSH_TMUX_TERM=screen-256color _ZSH_TMUX_FIXED_CONFIG=/Users/voxsim/.oh-my-zsh/plugins/tmux/tmux.extra.conf LC_CTYPE=UTF-8 _=/usr/bin/env ### What did you do? After I checkout the project in ~/Projects/go e I read [here](https://golang.org/doc/contribute.html). ``` I setted GOROOT_BOOTSTRAP to /usr/local because my go installation is in /usr/local/bin/go: export GOROOT_BOOTSTRAP=/usr/local ./all.bash ``` First result: ``` ##### Building Go bootstrap tool. cmd/dist cmd/dist/build.go:8:2: cannot find package "bytes" in any of: /usr/local/src/bytes (from $GOROOT) /Users/voxsim/gopath/src/bytes (from $GOPATH) cmd/dist/build.go:9:2: cannot find package "encoding/json" in any of: /usr/local/src/encoding/json (from $GOROOT) /Users/voxsim/gopath/src/encoding/json (from $GOPATH) cmd/dist/test.go:9:2: cannot find package "errors" in any of: /usr/local/src/errors (from $GOROOT) /Users/voxsim/gopath/src/errors (from $GOPATH) cmd/dist/build.go:10:2: cannot find package "flag" in any of: /usr/local/src/flag (from $GOROOT) /Users/voxsim/gopath/src/flag (from $GOPATH) cmd/dist/build.go:11:2: cannot find package "fmt" in any of: /usr/local/src/fmt (from $GOROOT) /Users/voxsim/gopath/src/fmt (from $GOPATH) cmd/dist/util.go:10:2: cannot find package "io" in any of: /usr/local/src/io (from $GOROOT) /Users/voxsim/gopath/src/io (from $GOPATH) cmd/dist/test.go:12:2: cannot find package "io/ioutil" in any of: /usr/local/src/io/ioutil (from $GOROOT) /Users/voxsim/gopath/src/io/ioutil (from $GOPATH) cmd/dist/test.go:13:2: cannot find package "log" in any of: /usr/local/src/log (from $GOROOT) /Users/voxsim/gopath/src/log (from $GOPATH) cmd/dist/build.go:12:2: cannot find package "os" in any of: /usr/local/src/os (from $GOROOT) /Users/voxsim/gopath/src/os (from $GOPATH) cmd/dist/build.go:13:2: cannot find package "os/exec" in any of: /usr/local/src/os/exec (from $GOROOT) /Users/voxsim/gopath/src/os/exec (from $GOPATH) cmd/dist/build.go:14:2: cannot find package "path/filepath" in any of: /usr/local/src/path/filepath (from $GOROOT) /Users/voxsim/gopath/src/path/filepath (from $GOPATH) cmd/dist/test.go:17:2: cannot find package "regexp" in any of: /usr/local/src/regexp (from $GOROOT) /Users/voxsim/gopath/src/regexp (from $GOPATH) cmd/dist/util.go:15:2: cannot find package "runtime" in any of: /usr/local/src/runtime (from $GOROOT) /Users/voxsim/gopath/src/runtime (from $GOPATH) cmd/dist/build.go:15:2: cannot find package "sort" in any of: /usr/local/src/sort (from $GOROOT) /Users/voxsim/gopath/src/sort (from $GOPATH) cmd/dist/main.go:11:2: cannot find package "strconv" in any of: /usr/local/src/strconv (from $GOROOT) /Users/voxsim/gopath/src/strconv (from $GOPATH) cmd/dist/build.go:16:2: cannot find package "strings" in any of: /usr/local/src/strings (from $GOROOT) /Users/voxsim/gopath/src/strings (from $GOPATH) cmd/dist/build.go:17:2: cannot find package "sync" in any of: /usr/local/src/sync (from $GOROOT) /Users/voxsim/gopath/src/sync (from $GOPATH) cmd/dist/test.go:21:2: cannot find package "time" in any of: /usr/local/src/time (from $GOROOT) /Users/voxsim/gopath/src/time (from $GOPATH) ``` I setted the GOPATH to the project: ``` export GOPATH=~/Projects/go ./all.bash ``` second result: ``` cmd/dist import cycle not allowed package cmd/dist imports bytes imports errors imports runtime imports runtime/internal/atomic imports unsafe imports runtime ``` Did i do something wrong? I already open an issue in the github project (https://github.com/golang/go/issues/17581#issuecomment-256040098) but as ianlancetaylor <https://github.com/ianlancetaylor> pointed I did something wrong. Can someone help me? I did not set any GOROOT env variables. Is it possible to build the source of golang without installing before go?
