Hi, I have downloaded Go 1.4 binaries and moved it to `/usr/local/go1.4` for example. Also I defined GOROOT_BOOTSTRAP variable in my users `.profile` file: `export GOROOT_BOOTSTRAP=/usr/local/go1.4`
I sourced file and if I run echo $GOROOT_BOOTSTRAP, it'll work correctly. When I run `bash all.bash` it'll detect variable correctly: ##### Building Go bootstrap tool. cmd/dist ##### Building Go toolchain using /usr/local/go1.4. Now example will not work, because if my user doesn't have write privileges in folder with go1.4, it'll error. That's normal, so in cases like that I run script with root privileges: `sudo bash all.bash` But it doesn't detect variable: ##### Building Go bootstrap tool. cmd/dist ERROR: Cannot find /home/vtest/go1.4/bin/go. Set $GOROOT_BOOTSTRAP to a working Go tree >= Go 1.4. It is trying to find default location instead one set in profile. I added it to roots `~/.profile` but no avail. Also tried `~/.bashrc` on both users and it doesn't work. (I used source on files). Some details for reference: lsb_release -a: No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS Release: 16.04 Codename: xenial uname -a: Linux vtest 4.4.0-53-generic #74-Ubuntu SMP Fri Dec 2 15:59:10 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux Is it possible to run `all.bash` with sudo or it's not recommended? Sometimes when I place sources in `/usr/local` (because of GOROOT for example), I need to run `all.bash` with sudo. Same applies if I only place Go 1.4 there. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
