That dependency is annoying, I don't think it's just you. I've changedthe README, the install command is now: GO111MODULE=on go get -u github.com/makeworld-the-better-one/gemget Try that and let me know if it works better, you have to have at leastGo version 1.11 I think. Worst case, you can always install from a binary. One small nitpick: Could you update the Gemini software page? It saysgemnet instead gemget. Thanks for adding it! makeworld ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ Original Message ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐On Tuesday, May 5, 2020 2:56 PM, solderpunk <solderpunk at SDF.ORG> wrote: > Ahoy! > > I'm really happy to see that somebody has written something like this, > it's something I've thought would be handy for a long time.
