Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?

Yes

What operating system and processor architecture are you using (go env)?

What did you do?

cd /tmp/whatever && unset GOPATH && go get cloud.google.com/[email protected]

What did you expect to see?

Get cloud.google.com/[email protected]

What did you see instead?

$ cd /tmp/whatever && unset GOPATH && go get cloud.google.com/[email protected]
go: cannot use path@version syntax in GOPATH mode

Dup of #24250: should work in go1.12beta1 if you set GO111MODULE=on.

(If you unset GOPATH, it defaults to '$HOME/go`.)
