It occurs to me your makefile is a little overcomplicated.

instead of if [ ! -d ... ] ; then mkdir -p ; fi just do mkdir -p $(GOPATH)/bin that being what the -p flag is for.

Or add these lines to the end:
Code:
$(GOPATH)/bin:
        mkdir -p $(GOPATH)/bin

No need to dump the logic into shell when makefile can handle it natively.

Of course, then you should add it to your make: line so make knows to 'build' that first: make:$(GOPATH)/bin

clmake

clmake(1)						      General Commands Manual							 clmake(1)

NAME

       clmake - color wrapper for make(1) and less(1)

SYNOPSIS

       clmake [ -f makefile ] [ option ] ...  target ...

DESCRIPTION

       clmake acts as a wrapper around make(1) to ease reading the output by colorizing it. It also pipes the output to the less(1) text pager.

OPTIONS

       clmake uses the same command line options as make(1).

USAGE

       To change a makefile to use clmake, you may change the path at the top which normally reads #!/usr/bin/make to #!/usr/bin/clmake.

       Alternately, you may type clmake whenever you would normally type make when compiling programs.

AUTHORS

       Bjarni R. Einarsson is the author of clmake.

       This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

       This manual page was written by Joe Wreschnig <piman@sacredchao.net>, for the Debian GNU/Linux system (but may be used by others).
