Package "k8s.io/client-go/pkg/api" no longer exists

It fails to build:

go get
package k8s.io/client-go/pkg/api: cannot find package "k8s.io/client-go/pkg/api" in any of:
	/nix/store/v24kf2k22v4hjlw1i7gh1kdchq8q7bql-go-1.7.4/share/go/src/k8s.io/client-go/pkg/api (from $GOROOT)
	/home/lewo/.gocode/src/k8s.io/client-go/pkg/api (from $GOPATH)
package k8s.io/client-go/pkg/api/v1: cannot find package "k8s.io/client-go/pkg/api/v1" in any of:
	/nix/store/v24kf2k22v4hjlw1i7gh1kdchq8q7bql-go-1.7.4/share/go/src/k8s.io/client-go/pkg/api/v1 (from $GOROOT)

Kubernetes has split its code across many repositories. It seems you should then use this repository https://github.com/kubernetes/api instead.

This repository vendor all its dependencies and all the vendor-ed sources are committed in /vendor
Go get will not try to download any dependencies.

You can try this by doing : docker run -it golang:1.9
And running go get github.com/cloudwatt/kube2consul and you'll see that github.com/cloudwatt/kube2consul is the only repository that is clone.

What command did you run exactly ?

I was trying to fetch dependencies directly from their repositories because this is what the Nix Go helper likes to do. However, this can also be done by using vendorized dependencies (but it's less clean and more verbose).
