What version of Go are you using (go version)?

Tested on:

16:56:48 $ go version
go version go1.8.3 darwin/amd64

and

16:56:38 $ go version
go version go1.9 darwin/amd64

Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?

Yes

What operating system and processor architecture are you using (go env)?

Additionally, I'm running in ZSH, although the issue isn't caught in bash either.

What did you do?

Trying to reproduce in a pruned makefile I couldn't reproduce it. I'll see about cleaning up the actual makefile which reproduces the issue.

16:57:58 $ make
go version go1.8.3 darwin/amd64
/usr/local/Cellar/go/1.8.3/libexec/pkg/tool/darwin_amd64/vet types.go
/usr/local/Cellar/go/1.8.3/libexec/pkg/tool/darwin_amd64/vet cmd/quotes/main.go

# github.com/segmentio/quotes/internal/memory
internal/memory/memory.go:44: n declared and not used
make: *** [build] Error 2

17:01:43 $ /usr/local/Cellar/go/1.8.3/libexec/pkg/tool/darwin_amd64/vet internal/memory/memory.go
17:01:45 $ echo $?
0
17:02:31 $ go vet ./...
17:02:33 $ echo $?
0
17:02:35 $ grep vet Makefile
        $Qgo vet -x ./...

What did you expect to see?

Vet catch the error running from the command line.

What did you see instead?

Vet doesn't catch the error from the command line.

I'll continue to try to reproduce in different environments / in isolation so it can hopefully be reproduced by others. Otherwise, I'll just continue to go insane. :-)

Lemme know if there's anything easy I can do to get more visibility into the program, before I dig too deeply into it.

Note that pkg/tool/.../vet may not be the same as go vet. Have you tried with go tool vet? I believe that would be the short equivalent.

I did try with go tool vet.

We need to see the exact commands and input files to reproduce the problem. It's extremely unlikely that it has anything to do with being run from a Makefile. It's much more likely that it has to do with exactly how the Makefile runs the command.

I'm a total dunce. It's the go build output that I'm seeing, not the go vet output.

Thanks @ianlancetaylor
