not enough arguments in call to cmd.New

@kingeasternsun: Does the command work without -u? The @latest tag is a specific version, but adding -u gets the master of the dependencies, which could be incompatible.

[ilyakaznacheev]

@stamblerre same issue, with and without -u

go get golang.org/x/tools/gopls@latest 
# golang.org/x/tools/gopls

if you performed the command in a go module, be sure to delete the old dependencies before rerunning go get golang.org/x/tools/gopls@latest. that worked for me.

[ilyakaznacheev]

@deanveloper is there a single command to do that?

[deanveloper]

go mod tidy; go get golang.org/x/tools/gopls@latest should work

[stamblerre]

Thanks @deanveloper! Closing this issue.
