+Time is precious, so let's get straight to the point.
+
+## The Problem
+Recently, while attempting to install a package using Go, I encountered an unusual error:
+

+package crypto/ecdh is not in GOROOT
+```
+
+Before running these commands, I would invite you to understand them and not trust blindly an internet article. However, if you're looking for the solution and knows about the commands listed below, just continue reading.
+
+To swiftly resolve this issue, follow these simple steps:

+Update the package list and address any missing dependencies:
+```bash
+sudo apt update --fix-missing
+```
+
+Reinstall Golang with all the binaries
+```bash
+sudo apt install golang -y
+```
