    <p>I have had some difficulties getting Go up and running correctly on Linux Mint 14. I have a folder ($HOME/develop/gocode) with <code>bin</code>, <code>pkg</code> and <code>src</code> folders as my <code>GOPATH</code> and have the <code>GOPATH</code> environment variable set properly there. I tried installing a certain github repository using <code>go get</code> (<a href="https://github.com/jbarham/primegen.go" rel="noreferrer">https://github.com/jbarham/primegen.go</a>) but Go gave me the error: <code>stat github.com/jbarham/primegen.go: no such file or directory</code> (I think because the repository ends in .go.) Fine, I just cloned it manually, but then when I try to <code>go install</code> one of two executables in that repository (neither one works, but I tried installing primespeed first) I get the following error:</p> <pre><code>$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/jbarham/primegen.go/primespeed $ go install go install github.com/jbarham/primegen.go: mkdir /usr/lib/go/pkg/linux_amd64/github.com: permission denied </code></pre> <p>Why is go trying to install the package there? I've explicitly set my <code>GOPATH</code> variable, and yet it is trying to install packages to /usr/local instead.</p> <p>I'm not sure if it will help, but here is some other output regarding version and environment:</p> <pre><code>$ go env GOROOT="/usr/lib/go" GOBIN="" GOARCH="amd64" GOCHAR="6" GOOS="linux" GOEXE="" GOHOSTARCH="amd64" GOHOSTOS="linux" GOTOOLDIR="/usr/lib/go/pkg/tool/linux_amd64" GOGCCFLAGS="-g -O2 -fPIC -m64 -pthread" CGO_ENABLED="1" $ go version go version go1.0.2 </code></pre>

    1. COSomething is fishy -- why isn't `GOPATH` showing up in your `go env` output?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
