@mRrvz woould you be able to merge this and cut a new release

[mRrvz]

Will it not be enough just to merge? Why do you want a release? @roopakv

It helps not pinning to a commit on brew. Even a patch helps

(I'm not experienced in Go, so, please, don't take my questions as nitpicking.)

Why replace is used, not just a line in the require section?

What also doubts me: now we should keep in the mind to don't forget to update x/sys from time to time, right? Can we require x/sys >= some_good_version?

I'm not sure it really should be fixed on Go modules side (it looks as a problem of distributions like homebrew), but I don't mind to workaround it anyway.

For the history sake: the original issue is golang/go#45702.

@roopakv please answer the question above

@Totktonada

replace because x/sys is a transitive dependency so require wont work, replace works for nested deps.

cannot do x >= with go. The team will need to remove this later

This is not a problem on homebrew, but a problem in x/sys and go 1.17. cartridge-cli needs this change to work with go 1.17

Thank you for the clarification. I don't mind the change.
