Running: gvm install go1.15.6 --with-protobuf --prefer-binary

I get the following outout:

Removing corrupt install...
Uninstalled version go1.15.6
Installing go1.15.6 from binary source
ERROR: Binary Go unavailable for this platform

and then it exits with a non-zero code.

In the docs it says "Attempt a binary install, falling back to source" -

So this looks like a bug

Can second this. Seeing the issue on macOS.

$ gvm install go1.14.15 --prefer-binary

Are you using Mac Os with arm architecture? (Apple Sillicon) I have same issue when I try install with -B option.

$ gvm install go1.10 -B
Installing go1.10 from binary source
