[GO] bazel build fails but go build works fine

cyyber commented 2 years ago

Description of the bug:

bazel build //cmd/zond:zond

The above command gives following error

Extracting Bazel installation...
Starting local Bazel server and connecting to it...
ERROR: /home/cyyber/.cache/bazel/_bazel_cyyber/3a49417b1dd1f87823292d1011bf771b/external/com_github_libp2p_go_libp2p_core/sec/insecure/pb/BUILD.bazel:12:17: no such package '@com_github_libp2p_go_libp2p_core//github.com/libp2p/go-libp2p-core/crypto/pb': BUILD file not found in directory 'github.com/libp2p/go-libp2p-core/crypto/pb' of external repository @com_github_libp2p_go_libp2p_core.

However, the project builds itself without any issue if I use go build. The following works perfectly fine.

go build ./cmd/zond

What's the simplest, easiest way to reproduce this bug? Please provide a minimal example if possible.

git clone https://github.com/theQRL/zond
cd zond
bazel build //cmd/zond:zond

Which operating system are you running Bazel on?

Ubuntu 21.10

What is the output of `bazel info release`?

release 5.2.0

If `bazel info release` returns `development version` or `(@non-git)`, tell us how you built Bazel.

No response

What's the output of `git remote get-url origin; git rev-parse master; git rev-parse HEAD` ?

No response

Have you found anything relevant by searching the web?

No response

Any other information, logs, or outputs that you want to share?

I checked /home/cyyber/.cache/bazel/_bazel_cyyber/3a49417b1dd1f87823292d1011bf771b/external/com_github_libp2p_go_libp2p_core/crypto/pb/ and the BUILD.bazel exists there, which is automatically generated by bazel.

The error message says "no such package '@com_github_libp2p_go_libp2p_core//github.com/libp2p/go-libp2p-core/crypto/pb'"; so you should check /home/cyyber/.cache/bazel/_bazel_cyyber/3a49417b1dd1f87823292d1011bf771b/external/com_github_libp2p_go_libp2p_core/github.com/libp2p/go-libp2p-core/crypto/pb/ for a BUILD file.

Anyway, this is most likely an issue with a wrong configuration of Gazelle, not a bug within Bazel. Please prefer to use the other communication channels for user support (bazel-discuss@googlegroups.com, https://slack.bazel.build, etc).

Already checked the above and mentioned the same under the question "Any other information, logs, or outputs that you want to share?"
