Use of gopkg.in

[gadams999]

Hi all,

During a homebrew update today, I've run into an error is preventing oh-my-posh to compile (macOS). It's around the use of gopkg.in/ini.v1 where that site is failing to talk to GitHub:

go build -o=oh-my-posh -ldflags="-s -w -X 'main.Version=12.10.0'"

go: downloading gopkg.in/yaml.v3 v3.0.1
go: downloading gopkg.in/ini.v1 v1.67.0
segments/gcp.go:9:2: unrecognized import path "gopkg.in/ini.v1": reading https://gopkg.in/ini.v1?go-get=1: 502 Bad Gateway
	server response: Cannot obtain refs from GitHub: cannot talk to GitHub: Get https://github.com/go-ini/ini.git/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack: net/http: request canceled (Client.Timeout exceeded while awaiting headers)

Unsure if the error originates from GitHub or gopkg.in.

While this is transient (although been like this for a couple hours now), are there alternatives such as using dep or vendoring the packages that could help out? I haven't reviewed what the packaging and build process is for homebrew, but wanted to start a conversation on this.

@gadams999 dep isn't used anymore. We used that a long time ago but when modules got introduced that became deprecated. And in this case it's a GitHub issue as that's the one that throws a 502, dep would have the same problem unless we start to also include the dependencies which I don't want to do.

[gadams999]

Thanks for the response! I'm new to Go, appreciate the details on dep. I'll check again later today and see how GitHub fares. I can live without OMP for a bit. Homebrew's failure to upgrade removed the previous 8.x version.

@gadams999 that sucks though. Let me validate GitHub's status.

And the timeout error has cleared. :)
