Please stop installing gometalinter by default #871
Comments
Sounds like a great idea - there's been quite a few issues since gometalinter moved away from go get and towards pre-packaged binaries . |
as a related feature request , it would be good to have the ability to select SPECIFICALLY which packages you want to use with goplus instead of an "all or nothing" system. I now cant delete packages i no longer want which are also included in go-plus because as soon as i start atom, go-plus immediately runs goget and starts installing them. |
@joefitzgerald any chance of getting this merged? this and other bugs around automated package installs are making |

This is a feature request, or rather a feature-removal request.
Now that
go-plus
supportsgolangci-lint
andrevive
, can you please stop insisting thatgometalinter
be installed? That tool is not going to be maintained by its author (see alecthomas/gometalinter#590). Also,go-plus
runsgometalinter --install
to pull in even more packages that I'm not going to use.I don't want to use
gometalinter
, and I don't want to have it. The only reason I need to have it installed, as well as its numerous dependencies, is so thatgo-plus
doesn't try to install it automatically — despitegolangci-lint
being chosen as the preferred linter ingo-plus
settings.Also,
gometalinter
has installation problems in environments withgo.mod
, and I need tricky workarounds for it to install cleanly. I'd like to drop those workarounds for a tool I don't use.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
