Hi,

Install of gvm fails for me using MacOS 10.13.

so it looks like you have are going to have to put source /Users/<USERNAME>/.gvm/scripts/gvm in the bashrc or bashprofile so it runs evertime the terminal starts up

[a2f0]

Hi @spencer1573 - Thank you for your support. After putting the line you specified in ~/.bashrc I receive the exact same error as above (when opening a new terminal).

[spencer1573]

i'm on sierra not high sierra, but i'm just setting it up right now i'll let you know what i find out on my system.

[a2f0]

It's not really that big of a deal I don't want you to waste your time. I actually don't need to get this to work to achieve what Im trying to do, although I'd be interested in using gvm. I appreciate you following up. Have a great weekend.

[spencer1573]

what does it do when you source the gvm script from the terminal? source /Users/<USERNAME>/.gvm/scripts/gvm

[a2f0]

I have the output of this invocation in the original post after the second then. Here it is again (I just re-tested this):

> source /Users/dansullivan/.gvm/scripts/gvm

[spencer1573]

why does your bash not end in a dollar sign?

[a2f0]

I just set an arbitrary bash prompt by exporting the PS1 variable, export PS1="--[\u@\h]-[\w]-[$RAILS_ENV]-\n> "

[spencer1573]

i'm not sure what that is. my guess is it could have something to do with why it isn't working. but if sourcing that isn't working from your terminal than we know it probably won't work in the bash profile where I think gvm automatically puts it. I have no idea what i'm doing bytheway.

[a2f0]

I have no idea what i'm doing bytheway LoL!!! At least you're trying to help me. I figured I'd report it since it's reproducible. I might spend some time digging into this more - I'll let you know if I find anything. Have a great weekend.

I feel like this is caused by .gvm/scripts/function/find_local_pkgset. This uses the anonymous function syntax style of:

function <name>
{
    # ...
}

The other files use the named function style of:

<name>() {
    # ...
}

I have a feeling that if you change the first lines of that file from:

function find_local_pkgset
{

to:

find_local_pkgset() {

it might fix your issue. .gvm/scripts/function/gvm_environment_sanitize and .gvm/scripts/function/gvm_export_path may also need similar changes.

That said, I have no idea why 10.13 is throwing a fit, while my 10.12 system handles those function definitions just fine. They are both using bash 3.2.57(1)-release, so I would think they should work the same (unless you upgraded your bash to 4.0+, which has different rules about the local identifier)

Unable to gvm install go1.10.3 on MacOS 10.13.6, what am I overlooking please?

@bdeanindy https://github.com/golang/go/issues/20888

version of 1.4.2 that is patched to work on osx, otherwise use 1.8.3 to
bootstrap```

I generally use the default Homebrew version of Go to bootstrap my first gvm install, to avoid this.

I'm going to close this out unless I hear otherwise
