go vet yields different results than gometalinter on example_test.go

[shawnps]

oddly, this is only not working on my linux server. it returns no errors on my mac. same version of go, and gometalinter is up to date.

here it is running on my ubuntu server with debug:

DEBUG: linting path .
DEBUG: linting with vet: go tool vet ./*.go (on .)
DEBUG: executing /usr/local/go/bin/go ["tool" "vet" "example_test.go" "handler.go" "handler_test.go"]

and here it is on my mac:

command i am invoking is gometalinter --exclude=vendor --disable-all --enable=vet .

Have you invoked go vet manually on both machines?

@alecthomas ah, good point. It appears to be something wrong with vet, not gometalinter.
