What did you do?

Step 5.2 doesn't work in go version 1.16. The workaround is to add the require directive.

working module hello output:
module hello

go 1.16

require example.com/greetings v0.0.0

replace example.com/greetings => ../greetings

What did you expect to see?

$ go build
go: found example.com/greetings in example.com/greetings v0.0.0-00010101000000-0

What did you see instead?

$ go build
hello.go:5:5: module example.com/greetings provides package example.com/greetings and is replaced but not required; to add it:
go get example.com/greetings
