go: github.com/gopherjs/[email protected]: invalid version: unknown revision 1.18.0-beta1

...what?

from gopherjs.

did

wget https://github.com/gopherjs/gopherjs/archive/refs/tags/v1.18.0-beta1+go1.18.5.zip

unzipped to folder, launched

go install

and it works but christ, you are writing Go 1.18+ is required and if you are not installing from source you will never run it with Go 1.18. ask yourself, how many of the people are installing packages from source?

Reopening to draw attention.

This is behaving as intended. GopherJS 1.18 is incomplete, as it does not yet support generics, so it has been released as a beta version. This is why it is not picked up by @latest.

This is explained in the release notes: https://github.com/gopherjs/gopherjs/releases/tag/v1.18.0-beta1%2Bgo1.18.5

We are making progress on adding generics support, so hope it will not be too long before this is no longer an issue.

@canercetin-randomguy go get github.com/gopherjs/[email protected] didn't work because there is no 1.18.0-beta1 tag in this repository. There is, however, v1.18.0-beta1 tag (notice the "v" in the beginning). So go install github.com/gopherjs/[email protected] works the way you would expect.
