Unable to instal Sys Go package, I tried the normal way but it doesn't make sense. Please find below my Go env below

I cannot get the GoLang Sys package installed.

Furthermore, below is my Go env:

GO111MODULE="auto"
GOARCH="amd64"
GOBIN=""
GOCACHE="/home/zahidk/.cache/go-build"
GOENV="/home/zahidk/.config/go/env"

GOGCCFLAGS="-fPIC -m64 -pthread -fmessage-length=0 -fdebug-prefix-map=/tmp/go-build2915773640=/tmp/go-build -gno-record-gcc-switches"

I tried using go get -u golang.org/x/sys and GOPATH/src/golang.org/x/sys from the website (https://pkg.go.dev/golang.org/x/sys#section-readme) to install the sys package but for some reason it doesn't work. Furthermore in my src directory are all my GoLang files. That's it.

Your go env indicates you are using GOPATH mode (instead of modules):

GO111MODULE="auto"
GOPATH="/home/zahidk/gocode"
GOMOD=""

The error message indicates the editor GOPATH is /home/zahidk/GoLang which
is different to your go env (/home/zahidk/gocode). This likely explains why the downloaded code is
not found when developing via the editor.

You should ensure the GOPATH environment variable is set correctly everywhere, or migrate to modules.

Using modules is recommended if you don't have a specific need for GOPATH. Modules make it easier to manage dependencies and are likely better supported by your editor.
