I am getting three errors whenever I try to run a  goki-gi go file .  The one that I believe is stopping the package from running says that there is an undefined item on line 21 "os.User.CacheDir" in the file "cache.go".

David — This was added to Go version 1.11 and thus we now require that version or higher. I updated the README with this info, and also just updated the wiki install info which I forgot to update..

Hi Randy,

Thanks for the quick reply.

I believe that here is a small error on the wiki in the install instructions that might trip up new users trying to install goki gi.  This is for linux users (I am on Ubuntu 19.04) it says use:  "go get [-u] ./..." (it has 3 periods on the end) while "go get [-u] ./.."  ( with 2 periods on the end) is what works.

Dave
