How to investigate/fix: ambiguous import: found package cloud.google.com/go/compute/metadata in multiple modules

Question

When I do a go mod tidy (go v1.19), I am receiving the following error. I do see both packages in my go pkg directory. I assume that v1.6.1 is the most current version and is the one to keep. If this is true, how do I determine who is dragging in the older v0.34.0 version and correct it? I'd appreciate your suggestions.

Thank you for your time and interest, Mike

Try go get cloud.google.com/go/compute/metadata and then go mod tidy
