Dep init fails even when package exists


I am trying to package a go application using dep and when doing dep init the below error occours.

I have installed the amcl library from here - https://github.com/milagro-crypto/amcl/tree/master/version3/go

Even the following packages exists

nithin@XPS-L401X:~/go/src/github.com/milagro-crypto/amcl/version3/go/amcl/FP256BN$ ls
ARCH.go  BIG.go  DBIG.go  ECDH.go  ECP2.go  ECP.go  FP12.go  FP2.go  FP4.go  FP.go  MPIN.go  PAIR.go  ROM.go

But still i get the following error

init failed: unable to solve the dependency graph: Solving failure: No versions of github.com/milagro-crypto/amcl met constraints:

Solution

  • I found the answer.

    Firstly go get github.com/milagro-crypto/amcl

    Then cd into this location (based on your $GOPATH) github.com/milagro-crypto/amcl/version3/go

    Follow this instructions to instal milagro
    https://github.com/milagro-crypto/amcl/tree/master/version3/go

    I recommend installing all options one after the other and then don't forget to

    go run TestALL.go

    and

    go run BenchtestALL.go

    else it fails to resolve, idk why.
