go module git.apache.org/thrift.git fails to download (getting-started)

[Oblynx]

Following the getting started instructions fails when the thrift go module fails to download.

$ operator-sdk new memcached-operator looks for a series of go modules, and after some time I get

go: git.apache.org/[email protected]: unknown revision v0.12.0
go: git.apache.org/[email protected]: git fetch -f origin refs/heads/*:refs/heads/* refs/tags/*:refs/tags/* in /home/kosamara/go/pkg/mod/cache/vcs/83dba939f95a790e497d565fc4418400145a1a514f955fa052f662d56e920c3e: exit status 128:

As a workaround, in go < 1.13, setting a proxy could allow getting the module. Can you try?

GOPROXY=https://proxy.golang.org operator-sdk new memcached-operator

Thank you for raising it.

To solve it you can add the proxy, and/or use the master branch and the command 'make tidy' which will use the proxy and your replicate the dep as replace git.apache.org/thrift.git => github.com/apache/thrift v0.12.0. For more info see here: operator-framework/operator-sdk#1873
