As I noted in #1078139, the purpose of src:golang-defaults is to control the "default" version of Go for most packages in Debian, so it would probably be helpful to have someone do a test rebuild with 1.25 so we can have confidence that we aren't breaking things beforehand (perhaps with an upload to experimental?), or coordinate a transition of explicit rebuilds (post-upload). > Oh, by the way. in debian directory > ( at > https://salsa.debian.org/go-team/compiler/golang-defaults/-/tree/master/debian?ref_type=heads > ) > is no watch file. That's correct -- if you look closely at the version number of the package, it's a "native" package, so a watch file isn't really appropriate nor would it do the "correct" thing. The package is almost entirely virtuals and symlinks, but the chosen version number does intentionally correspond with the "upstream" Go version it's currently pointing/defaulting to. ♥, - Tianon 4096R / B42F 6819 007F 00F8 8E36 4FD4 036A 9C25 BF35 7DD4
