| > This happens with things like os.UserHomeDir or some networking things like DNS lookups. The docs do not mention this CGO dependency, are you sure? https://pkg.go.dev/os#UserHomeDir |

| I was surprised too, that I had to check the docs, so I assume the user was misinformed. |

| ▲ | telotortium 3 days ago | parent [-] | | os.UserHomeDir is specified to read the HOME environment variable, so it doesn’t require CGo. os/user does, but only to support NSS and LDAP, which are provided by libc. That’s also why net requires CGo- for getaddrinfo using resolv.conf |
