What did you expect to see?

I expected the build to succeed and produce go 1.10 binary.

What did you see instead?

You cd'ed into the wrong directory it looks like. There is no sparse_unix.go in Go 1.10. You seem to be in an old dev tree.

Did you have a stale checkout of the go source tree prior to extracting the tar.gz. file? The presence of the sparse_unix.go file is indicative of a checkout of the tree from several months ago.

Or rather, nuke your go directory before you tar xvf

looks like last time I downloaded a go distribution, I did not have the wisdom to mv go/ go-1.10/ like I did this time.

I'd recommend doing that in releases from now on, putting the version in the folder name inside the .tar.gz. it's pretty standard practice.

I've got this error on MacOS.
$ go version
go version go1.10.3 darwin/amd64
$ vgo
go requires Go 1.10 but VGOROOT=/Users/kdev/go is not a Go 1.10 source tree

@iosandroidwebtopdev, that seems unrelated to this bug.
