Hey Mathias,

I've raised 2 Merge Requests, one for each package pointing it to the new
upstream, bumping the upstream version along some other things.

-
https://salsa.debian.org/go-team/packages/golang-yaml.v2/-/merge_requests/3
-
https://salsa.debian.org/go-team/packages/golang-gopkg-yaml.v3/-/merge_requests/4

BTW I tried only changing Go-Import-Path for both but it didn't work so I
also did the links. Maybe I'm missing something but haven't checked
dh-golang to understand how that key is working.

Are you available to review and sponsor it?

Cheers!
