ginkgo installation failed by Dep

[junpayment]

Hi contributers, thanks a great product!

Attempting to install with dep will fail.

$ dep ensure
 :
(21)  ? attempt gopkg.in/fsnotify.v1 with 1 pkgs; 0 versions to try
panic: version queue is empty, should not happen
 :

Actually I know the cause, I also know how to avoid it.

This is because the path of gopkg.in/fsnotify/fsnotify.v1 referred to by kinkgo's dependent library github.com/hpcloud/tail at v1.0.0 (latest) is different from the current one .

I make the issue about it
hpcloud/tail#146

fsnotify
https://gopkg.in/fsnotify.v1

The workaround is as follows.

Switch source ingopkg.in/fsnotify/fsnotify.v1

Write Gopkg.toml like below

[[override]]
  name = "gopkg.in/fsnotify.v1"
  source = "gopkg.in/fsnotify/fsnotify.v1"

see also golang/dep#1799 (comment)

Use the master branch of github.com/hpcloud/tail

Write Gopkg.toml like below
Because master branch of tail already solved it.

[[override]]
  branch = "master"
  name = "github.com/hpcloud/tail"

I hope to solve the root cause if possible.
Because I think that dep is still used so much and it can be predicted what vgo will be going on so I think that many users rely on dep.

Hey @junpayment !

Thanks for reporting this problem and investigating the root cause! Hopefully, it will help other ginkgo users with the same problems.

I feel that this issue is not related to ginkgo directly and for now I am going to close it. Please, feel free to re-open the issue if you have questions or comments on this.
