Extend documentation installing deoplete-go without Vim package manager

Your documentation reads
So, If you use Plugin manager supported build process, set make commmand.
What to do if I do not use a plugin manager (I am using Vim8 packages)
I downloaded (cloned the repo) and called make
. I think this succeeded. What to copy where to make deoplete
Golang-completion aware?

If you use Vim8 packages, why don't you know plugin installation?
You should study Vim8 packages feature.
I think it is not plugin documentation work.
I have read other plugin documentation, but I don't know for Vim package manager documentation.
It is for advanced user feature.
Ok I figured out myself and leave it here for others.
Those not using a package manger but solely relying on Vim8 package features can install this plugin easily too.
- Have the build-essentials met (not covered, but building deoplete-go requires a working go environment, python and a C-compiler) and deoplete already installed and working. This is no different from other package-manager supported ways to install this plugin
- Clone the repo preferably into .config/nvim/pack/plugins/start/ like
git clone https://github.com/zchee/deoplete-go.git ~/.config/nvim/pack/plugins/start/
- cd into the cloned repo and simply call
make
. If all dependencies of 0. are met, - you are done :)
