@neild @mpvl - Shouldn't the changes in xerrors be also reverted ?

@agnivade

ping/fyi @neild @jba

xerrors can't be built on the recently released go1.13beta1 (and tip) since errors.{Frame,Formatter} were reverted in 3e2c522.

[zchee]

@mpx Thanks comment.

And yes, has been released go1.13beta1 but this version can't compiling xerrors package.
It might be many Gophers will confused, and will post meaningless issues to Go mainline repository.

I know that the discussion of the next error package implementation proposal takes a long time. also I know still discussing.
However, If reason of my CLs is still not merged because of that discuss, I think we should first to make the master branch compilable. After that, should be some proposal reimplemented to xerrors or implements to the Go core.

also ping @rsc, @ianlancetaylor @bradfitz

Is there any (hacky) workaround for now?

Update: looks like this helped:

~/go/src/golang.org/x/xerrors$ git revert d61658bd2e18010be0e21349cc92b1b706e35146

@xaionaro

Just go get -u -m(if you use devel, -d) -v golang.org/x/xerrors@0421b64034aa326c388bbb256730b518991d36ae which my CL hash.
