Package luser is a drop-in replacement for 'os/user' which allows you to lookup users and groups in cross-compiled builds without 'cgo'. 'os/user' requires 'cgo' to lookup users using the target OS's API. This is the most reliable way to look up user and group information. However, cross-compiling means that 'os/user' will only work for the OS you're using. 'user.Current()' is usable when building without 'cgo', but doesn't always work. The '$USER' and '$HOME' variables could be different from what you expect or not even exist. If you want to cross-compile a relatively simple program that needs to write a config file somewhere in the user's directory, the last thing you want to do is figure out some elaborate build scheme involving virtual machines. When cgo is not available for a build, one of the following methods will be used to lookup user and group information: You should be able to simply replace 'user.' with 'luser.' (in most cases).
