Hi,
I was trying to update snowflake [1]. This has a change in import path, which I
added in [2].
This now has 2 import paths. riseup-vpn is a reverse-dependency of this
package. When I tried
to build reverse-dependency (everything locally), I am getting:

(vendor tree)
While this directory _is_ present:

./usr/share/gocode/src/gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/anti-censorship/pluggable-transports/snowflake/v2/common/encapsulation/encapsulation_test.go
Could someone help me understand as to why the other import path is not taken
up?
The documentation of dh_golang [3] indicates that only the *first*
import path is used:
"DH_GOPKG" is automatically set to the value of the first import path of the
"XS-Go-Import-Path" "debian/control" field, which can contain several comma-separated
import paths.
In your case, riseup-vpn is looking for the Go package
"git.torproject.org/pluggable-transports/snowflake.git/common/encapsulation",
whereas the snowflake one provides only
"gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/anti-censorship/pluggable-transports/snowflake/v2/common/encapsulation/",
which is a different import path.
Maybe dh_golang should instead create symlinks for all the other listed
import paths targeting the first one?
