Hi! I've been slightly annoyed by the boilerplate required when using dh-golang, so I've prepared several changes to make it so that in place of having to use:
%: <TAB>dh $@ --builddirectory=_build --buildsystem=golang --with=golang the following (in most cases) can be used instead: %: <TAB>dh $@ The first part to remove --with=golang is now in sid, by providing the dh-sequence-golang, which can be build-depended on instead of dh-golang. The next part to remove the need for --buildsystem=golang has two sub-parts, one sitting in dh-golang git HEAD to add buildsystem autodetection, and the other is on debhelper (#981106) to add «golang» to its third-party list of supported buildsystems. The last part would be to make the default directory for the golang buildsystem (starting with dh compatibility level 14) be «_build», which seems to be the prevalent convention in the golang team(?), so that the --builddirectory option can be omitted. I've not yet pushed that to git, as I'd like a few more opinions on this. Thanks, Guillem
