I was previously trying to override worksrcpath itself (I remember going through the Docs for the build.* settings, but managed to miss this one apparently). I’ve got some Go-specific ldflags left to fix, but at least it builds and runs now.

I have a working Portfile for Kustomize [0] at https://github.com/breun/macports-ports/blob/kustomize-from-source/devel/kustomize/Portfile which builds and installs a working `kustomize` binary, but I believe I still need to set the correct flags to correctly set the version, because currently the output of 'kustomize version’ is this:

----
% kustomize version
Version: {KustomizeVersion:unknown GitCommit:$Format:%H$ BuildDate:1970-01-01T00:00:00Z GoOs:darwin GoArch:amd64}
----

I’d like at least KustomizeVersion to have a value, BuildDate would be nice as well. GitCommit might not be doable when building from a source tarball. I tried adding the flags that are also set by the kustomize Homebrew formula [1], but they don't seem to have any effect.

Anyone familiar enough with Go builds to tell me how to fix this?

Thanks, Nils.
