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

$ go version
go version go1.17.7 linux/amd64

Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?

Yes.

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

Note that the GOROOT environment variable is not set. (It is being calculated automatically from the go command's location.)

What did you do?

package gorootbug

//go:generate /usr/local/gotools/bin/counterfeiter io.Reader

Then ran go generate.

What did you expect to see?

It should work.

What did you see instead?

$ go generate -x
/usr/local/gotools/bin/counterfeiter io.Reader
Writing `FakeReader` to `gorootbugfakes/fake_reader.go`... 
go/build: go list io: exit status 2
go: cannot find GOROOT directory: go


bug.go:3: running "/usr/local/gotools/bin/counterfeiter": exit status 1

If I explicitly set GOROOT to itself, then it works.

$ GOROOT=$(go env GOROOT) go generate -x
/usr/local/gotools/bin/counterfeiter io.Reader
Writing `FakeReader` to `gorootbugfakes/fake_reader.go`... Done

This is an issue of counterfeiter. So please report the issue to the tool's issue tracker.

@hyangah Other than setting the GOROOT env var improperly (which it doesn't seem to do), what could counterfeiter possibly do to cause the go tool to fail in this manner?
