The Go 1.6 template syntax for whitespace elision differs from the syntax of the above fork, so it requires a bump of the major version of github.com/alecthomas/kingpin. I have submitted a pull request [1] that switches to the Go 1.6 template package. [1] https://github.com/alecthomas/kingpin/pull/114 Unless you suggest otherwise, I can package a preliminary version of gopkg.in/alecthomas/kingpin.v3 and patch acmetool to use the Go 1.6 template syntax. > Please investigate.
