I have to admit, I never dealt with the Go part of the package for the simple reason that I was too unfamiliar with the Go packaging approach in Debian. Any help would be much appreciated. > 1) Could you package latest version? I'm happy to help if you need help > finishing this.

I've already updated to 2.73 locally, but I haven't updated yet as I haven't found the fix for #1089636 yet. I'll try to push this new version tomorrow, leaving #1089636 open, so that you may progress with your code. > 2) Would you be willing to add the Go code? Absolutely, and I would be grateful for it! The only "condition" would be that 2.73 migrates to testing before we add a new package, just to ensure that trixie will be up to date, given the 2025-03-15 freeze. But that's only 2-day delay, and we can use that to finalize the Go package. Thanks, Christian
