Package: golang-go Version: 1.5.1-4 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
As you can see on https://packages.debian.org/sid/amd64/golang-go/filelist there are quite a few race-enabled package .a files included in the package. They are there because of the race-testing ./run.bash does. I think it's a bit silly that a subset of such packages are installed: either all of them should be installed (this is what the 1.4 packaging did I think), or none of them. apart from anything else, this means that if DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nocheck actually worked (see bug 807290 <wink>), the files included in the package would change depending on whether DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nocheck was set or not, which seems like a bad thing to me. Happy to implement either option if given an opinion!
