The $GOPATH/bin path not present in $PATH environment variable and the subsequent binary not found error is a common scenario for everyone installing any go tool. We should consider adding it as last one along with pdtm one, so that the final PATH env variable looks like this:
export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/.pdtm/bin:$GOPATH/bin
Notes:
Maybe the behavior should be optional, but it would automatically make life easier for countless people just starting with go and not familiar with dozen of shells configuration files
The GOPATH might be scoped only to the go binary, so it should be retrieved via go env GOPATH output
If GOBIN is defined, it has priority over GOPATH/bin
