x509: failed to load system roots and no roots provided

Anyone run into the error

  x509: failed to load system roots and no roots provided

on the go1 tip (this is on Mac OS X 10.7.5)?  I had just tried switching to 15556:8d4bd93dcd41 tip to see whether or not the patch to src/pkg/crypto/x509/x509.go for Entrust would fix an earlier error I got:

  x509: certificate signed by unknown authority

when trying to pull

  go get bitbucket.org/santucco/goweb

Have you disabled cgo?

Do you mean when building, as in running

  CGO_ENABLED=0 ./make.bash

to build the tools w/o CGO like I would when building the cross compiler?

[Dave Cheney]

Yes, cgo is required to load the ca roots in osx.

Interesting! I had originally started to write back that no I didn't
disable CGO when building the darwin tools, but I realized that I *do*
then build the cross compiler and that probably overwrites some of the
build tools w/o CGO enabled.

I tried rebuilding the tip from scratch w/o that second step, and am
now able to pull the files.

Thank you for the help!

I am still having the problem with Go 1.1. I am using goxc (https://github.com/laher/goxc) for the cross-compile. Here's the build log: https://drone.io/github.com/jingweno/gh/184

[Dave Cheney]

You can see the CGO_ENABLED=0 is being set. Actually it doesn't need to do that, Go 1.1 always disables cgo on xcompile builds. 

[Owen]

Yes, either setting CGO_ENABLED=0 or Go 1.1 doesn't solve the problem. I am trying to cross-compile to Darwin on a Linux box as you could see from the log. My Mac version is 10.8.4. 

[Dave Cheney]

It is not possible to cross compile from something not Darwin to Darwin with cgo enabled because the Darwin specific framework files are not available to link against (amongst many other reasons)
