Error using golang 1.18

[rodoufu]

I'm getting the error:

Installed golangci-lint into /home/runner/golangci-lint-1.43.0-linux-amd64/golangci-lint in 458ms
Prepared env in 606ms

run golangci-lint

  Error: golangci-lint exit with code 2

Which is a known issue for golangci-lint with golang v1.18.0 golangci/golangci-lint#2374

My GitHub action file is:

name: golangci-lint
on:
  push:
    tags:
      - v*
    branches:
      - master
      - main
  pull_request:
permissions:
  contents: read
jobs:
  golangci:
    name: lint
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/setup-go@v2
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - name: golangci-lint
        uses: golangci/golangci-lint-action@v2
        with:
          version: v1.43

I've also tried to use:

name: golangci-lint
on:
  push:
    tags:
      - v*
    branches:
      - master
      - main
  pull_request:
permissions:
  contents: read
jobs:
  golangci:
    strategy:
      matrix:
        go-version: [1.17.x]
    name: lint
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/setup-go@v3
        with:
          go-version: ${{ matrix.go }}
      - uses: actions/checkout@v3
      - name: golangci-lint
        uses: golangci/golangci-lint-action@v2
        with:
          version: v1.43

But both are failing, what can I do in that case?

[SVilgelm]

v2 of the action is used to install the lates stable Go automatically, to skip the installation of go and use the pre installed we had to use skip-go-installation parameter.
But recently we released v3 of the action, it does not install go and uses only pre-installed go.
in you case change uses: golangci/golangci-lint-action@v2 to uses: golangci/golangci-lint-action@v3 in second example

The matrix keys do not seem to match, would correcting that solve the problem?

    strategy:
      matrix:
        go-version: [1.17.x]
    name: lint
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/setup-go@v3
        with:
          go-version: ${{ matrix.go-version }}
