I’m having some trouble understanding what exactly the bug is that you’re reporting here.
With regards to -dev dependencies ending up in Build-Depends _and_ Depends, that was fixed in dh-make-golang already, see https://github.com/Debian/dh-make-golang/commit/1f158eb4ab41ba72a8ba9386864a10a9d9bf2ded With regards to putting source and binaries into different packages, I don’t understand why dh-golang would be involved at all? dh_install can be used for this, see https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/codesearch.git/tree/debian for an example. Can you please clarify if anything remains to be done, or whether that addresses the issue?
