Thank you for your quick and reply and your suggestion! Yes, this works and it is what I was doing so far and it works in most cases. However it seems like it's not enough for some cases (like the latest changes in snapd). There are bits inside dh_golang that use "go list -f ..." without considering tags and AFAICT with no way to add awareness for build tags. So in my case go list will also include the files that have the "!secboot" tag which have extra go dependencies that are not available in debian. This then makes the build fail. Let me give an example, suppose we have foo.go: """ // +build !nosecboot package foo import "unavailable.pkg/in/debian" """" then "go list -f" will pickup the unavailalbe import (I hope this explanation makes sense, happy to expand or give more concrete examples). If there is a workaround for this, I would love to learn it :) Thanks, Michael
