$GOPATH not set.

I am not getting this with GOPATH and GOROOT settings. Tried from instructions i have found that said to solve this problem, but no luck. I do not know where to download ssh-chat and where to install go. When run sudo make build I get:

Have you tried setting your GOPATH environment variable? :)

Some instructions here: https://golang.org/doc/install#testing

Ideally we'll be providing binaries so you don't need to build it from scratch, but that's not done yet. Sorry.

Ok. but what is main point behind GOPATH, once I installed go. What I do need to do, change GOPATH to point to directory where go is installed or where ssh-chat is downloaded?

See the link I shared. It's Go's "workspace", it's where it will download the dependencies into, build/compile, etc.
