Installing cosign from solutions in #588

[syhv-git]

I was running into the same issue as described in #588 and I was able to install cosign with the command fix

go install github.com/sigstore/cosign/cmd/cosign@main

however after the installation ended, I tried running cosign and got cosign: command not found

I then tried to follow the fix #716 but I kept getting this error

docker: Got permission denied while trying to connect to the Docker daemon socket at unix:///var/run/docker.sock: Post "http://%2Fvar%2Frun%2Fdocker.sock/v1.24/containers/create": dial unix /var/run/docker.sock: connect: permission denied.

My system is relatively new, running Ubuntu(my knowledge of Ubuntu is also relatively new), and I don't quite understand what's going wrong. Also, in my ~/go/bin/ directory I have cosign so I don't understand how the command is not found.

After taking a break for a little and coming back, I copied the cosign executable to /bin/ and I got it to work. I'd assume the error I received from running #716 solution is because I already have cosign installed even if it didnt execute the cosign command prior to copying the executable to bin. I feel dumb but also learning a lot. Sorry if I wasted anyone's time.

No worries! Thanks for explaining how you fixed this. It might help someone else some day!
