Hi, tried to install flow-go-sdk on ubuntu using go get -u [github.com/onflow/flow-go-sdk](http://github.com/onflow/flow-go-sdk) but i’m getting an error “go/src/github.com/onflow/cadence/runtime/interpreter/decode.go:43:18: undefined: cbor.StreamDecoder”. How can i go about solving this issue?

I tried the same installation on my host machine which is on Windows and its fine. Not sure if it’s a problem with my VM or the ubuntu environment.

Might be an issue with your workspace/GOPATH? Maybe try command with flags `go get -u -v -f all `

I have opened [https://github.com/onflow/flow-go-sdk/pull/197](https://github.com/onflow/flow-go-sdk/pull/197) to fix this

Similar issue happened to me. go/src/github.com/onflow/atree/encode.go:44:11: undefined: cbor.StreamDecoder. I think this is due to this package [github.com/fxamacker/cbor/v2](http://github.com/fxamacker/cbor/v2) not able to be found. I tried to go get this package separately of running get flow-go-sdk, but still not working.

I am using go version 1.16 on Macbook pro m1.  
Thanks
