Docs feedback: Buggy Go version in the installation instructions of the gitlab-runner development environment
In the Section "1. Install dependencies and Go runtime" you are asked to download Go version 1.8.7. However, in that version there is a bug, which results in an error when executing make deps
, when reaching step "5. Install runner dependencies".
$ make deps
go get github.com/golang/dep/cmd/dep
go install net: open /usr/local/go/pkg/linux_amd64/net.a: permission denied
Makefile:298: recipe for target '/home/username/Go/src/gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-runner/.gopath/bin/dep' failed
make: *** [/home/username/Go/src/gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-runner/.gopath/bin/dep] Error 1
With newer Go versions this error does not occur (tried with newest 1.12.7 only).
