Viper seems to crash gotype

[CorentinDeBoisset]

I tried to find an explanation for this, but i can't seem to succeed...

Whenever i try to run gotype -t -e main.go, i get the following error:

main.go:4:2: could not import myproject/cmd (type-checking package "myproject/cmd" failed (/<path>/backend/cmd/root.go:6:2: could not import github.com/spf13/viper (type-checking package "github.com/spf13/viper" failed (/Users/corentin/go/pkg/mod/github.com/spf13/viper@v1.4.0/flags.go:3:8: could not import github.com/spf13/pflag (go/build: importGo github.com/spf13/pflag: exit status 1
error writing go.mod: open /Users/corentin/go/pkg/mod/github.com/spf13/viper@v1.4.0/go.mod298498081.tmp: permission denied

)))))
zsh: exit 2     gotype -t -e main.go

It seems as if a temporary go.mod was required or something. If i completely comment out viper from my project, it will give the expected result.

Also - and that's when it gets really weird - if i keep viper in my project I will get the error when running gotype in a terminal but not when it's running in sublime-linter-gotype. In this case, i get the correct linting.

I also opened an issue in the go repository because I don't know if the error is caused by gotype or viper.

Seems like it's indeed a problem on go-build's side. Closing the issue !

And sorry for the disturbance.
