"unexpected directory layout error" too draconian

[kaihendry]

What version of Go are you using (go version)?

go version devel +6e02750 Wed Oct 26 02:24:45 2016 +0000 linux/amd64

What operating system and processor architecture are you using (go env)?

Travis

What did you do?

go run go/stars.go
unexpected directory layout:
import path: _/home/travis/gopath/src/github.com/Spuul/static-website/go/staticgen

What did you expect to see?

For it not to croak

What did you see instead?

make: *** [public/stars.txt] Error 1

I know Golang is pretty pedantic about the directory layout, but as I've griped about before, having private dependencies in a proprietary project is a huge pain! Couldn't this please be instead picked up by a go vet flag?!

This bug report is more of a rant than a useful bug report. It lacks information for us to help or even understand the problem. Closing.
