 Pol | * I'm going to copy paste a message I wrote in the dev room:
I'm looking for a bit of help for compiling this Go software: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/427193 (https://github.com/buildpacks/pack). The issue started to appear after they did this: https://github.com/buildpacks/pack/pull/2390 (I added a comment in there just now: https://github.com/buildpacks/pack/pull/2390#issuecomment-3097654347)
When I run the build, it end up with:
> Building subPackage ./testhelpers
> Building subPackage ./testhelpers/comparehelpers
> Building subPackage ./tools
> main module (github.com/buildpacks/pack) does not contain package github.com/buildpacks/pack/tools
For full logs, run:
nix log /nix/store/8rhs2qy6cbk637czra3lw4ydjh90w6xd-pack-0.38.2.drv
Can you help?

 Paul Meyer (katexochen) | Pol: I think you should set subPackages:
subPackages = [ "." ];
| 17:28:43 |
| Pol | Let me try | 17:28:52 |
| Paul Meyer (katexochen) | The issue is that ./tools is another go module, and buildGoModule can only build packages from one module in one derivation. | 17:29:24 |
| Paul Meyer (katexochen) | If you set subPackages, it will just try to build the package you specified instead of using find and assume it can build everything directory in src that has a .go file. | 17:30:30 |
| Pol | It worked, thanks !!! | 17:31:06 |
| Paul Meyer (katexochen) | You might want to check if there are other binaries that are expected as output, but I didn't find any at first glance. | 17:31:40 |
| Pol | Thank you !!! | 17:34:49 |
| Pol | Ready for review :) | 17:39:01 |

| Nila The Dragon | Is there a good way to build projects with private dependencies yet? I searched the web a bit but what I found didn't end up working. | 19:03:27 |
| 20 Aug 2025 |
| Sandro 🐧 | WDYM by private? | 12:02:57 |
| Sandro 🐧 | I just do go vendoring everywhere and then fetch via fetchFromGitHub | 12:03:25 |
| Nila The Dragon | We have an internal repo (no vendor folder) and that in turn has other private repos it uses as a dependency. | 12:17:46 |
| Sandro 🐧 | turn on vendoring. that is faster for nix and getting it to work in CI | 12:18:09 |
 diamond (it/its) | is this just for local dev? direnv + impure + fetchgit might suffice | 18:00:55 |
| diamond (it/its) | a while back i made this thread that might be useful https://discourse.nixos.org/t/git-buildgomodule-private-repositories/5167 | 18:02:40 |
