# Build of golang.org/x/tools/gopls fails with:
# can't load package: package golang.org/x/tools/gopls: unknown import path "golang.org/x/tools/gopls": cannot find module providing package golang.org/x/tools/gopls
# That is most probably caused by golang.org/x/tools/gopls containing a separate Go module.
# In order to fix this, we simply remove the module.
# Note that build of golang.org/x/tools/cmd/gopls provides identical binary as golang.org/x/tools/gopls.
# See https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/64335.
# The gopls folder contains a Go submodule which causes a build failure.
# Given that, we can't have the gopls binary be part of the gotools
# derivation.
#
# The attribute "gopls" provides the gopls binary.
