can these go env cause error while running wails build GOMODCACHE="/home/gregoriusdimas/go1.13/pkg/mod" to go1.20 and GOPATH="/home/gregoriusdimas/go1.13" to go1.20?

Solution

  • wails build on linux

    needs to install pkg-config then other requirements such as:

    sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install pkg-config

pkg-config --version

sudo apt-get install libgtk-3-dev libwebkit2gtk-4.0-dev libglib2.0-dev

make sure that your current go env in proper setup:

export GOMODCACHE="/home/gregoriusdimas/go1.20/pkg/mod"

export GOPATH="/home/gregoriusdimas/go1.20"
