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

+fc5107c, perhaps go1.11 too

Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?

yes

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

no matter

What did you do?

  1. share the $GOROOT over network file system
  2. move go command to $GOBIN from $GOROOT/bin, for example, set GOBIN=$HOME/bin/$GOOS_$GOARCH, after all.bash success on each $GOOS/$GOARCH
  3. run go test -coverprofile=covp && go tool cover -html=covp at some package directory

What did you expect to see?

works well the same as go1.10 or below

What did you see instead?

cover: cannot run go list: fork/exec $GOROOT/bin/go: no such file or directory

Although, I think it's fine this is a newly introduced restriction on the versioning and module supported go command, as https://github.com/golang/go/blob/master/src/cmd/cover/func.go#L194 describes a bit.

Don't move the go command out of $GOROOT/bin.

And don't rename the $GOROOT/bin/go command.
