The runtime version of go is: kali-$ go version go version go1.22.3 linux/amd64

You're maybe missing the .git directory?

[worklitao]

I analyzed it, I downloaded the source zip from the web, version 1.60, and it compiled and run with errors, plus there was no .git directory after the compiled. I also tried a lower version, and it works fine after the same mutation. It should be a problem with the source code.

I have the same problem on 6.3.0-kali1-cloud-amd64. I tried doing fresh install on pure Debian and on Arch and both work. Only Kali seems to have issue.

You're maybe missing the .git directory?

i have the same issue. What does that mean? in $HOME? does it need to be empty, or not?

Edit: I used the .tar.gz from the releases. Using git with checkout v1.5.42 seems to work

The .git directory needs to be present in the directory from which you compile the binary, as the build script needs to pull version information from git.
