Unable to Compile Go Code with SQLite Dependencies in Nix Flake Shell

Help
1

I have a simple Nix Flake shell with the SQLite dependencies required to access the database, but I am unable to compile the code due to the following error:

go build -o ocean-market cmd/main.go
# runtime/cgo
flag provided but not defined: -E
Go is a tool for managing Go source code.

Usage:

	go <command> [arguments]

my nix flake is

{
  description = "PoC";

  inputs = {
    nixpkgs.url = "github:nixos/nixpkgs";
    flake-utils.url = "github:numtide/flake-utils";

    gomod2nix = {
      url = "github:tweag/gomod2nix";
      inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
      inputs.utils.follows = "utils";
    };
  };

  outputs = { self, nixpkgs, flake-utils, gomod2nix }:
    flake-utils.lib.eachDefaultSystem (system:
      let
        pkgs = import nixpkgs {
          inherit system;
          overlays = [ gomod2nix.overlays.default ];
        };
      in
      {
        packages = {
          default = pkgs.gnumake;
        };
        formatter = pkgs.nixpkgs-fmt;

        devShell = pkgs.mkShell {
          buildInputs = with pkgs; [
            gnumake
            gcc
            glibc.dev

          buildPhase = "make";
          shellHook = ''
            export CGO_ENABLED=1

            export PATH=$GOROOT/bin:$GOPATH/bin:$PATH
            make dep
          '';
        };
      }
    );
}

What does which go return inside the shell?

[vincent@vincenzopalazzo-arch-dev]$ which go
/bin/go

I think this is wrong right? I need to set any env variable?

However, nothing change with the following diff

You shouldn’t need to do any of this. nix develop (and other nix commands) prepend your PATH with the store locations of your various packages. Most likely $GOROOT is not set inside the dev shell so your PATH ends up being prepended with just /bin.

I’m also confused by the error message. There was no -E flag passed to your command, yet the error complains about that flag. I initially thought that you had it set in a shell alias for the go command, but it is visibly not the case.

IDK I am just using the sqllite library and I think this is the library that use the flag, so I have no idea on how to fix this
