That is true, but the v3-unstable name should not be used either, as it
is not released (see https://gopkg.in/alecthomas/kingpin.v3-unstable).

I am going to provide the compatiblity symlink, but I think it does not
make sense to have a package with a name that needs to change as soon as
it is released.

but you can't import gopkg.in/alecthomas/kingpin.v3

go get -d gopkg.in/alecthomas/kingpin.v3
package gopkg.in/alecthomas/kingpin.v3: unrecognized import path "
gopkg.in/alecthomas/kingpin.v3" (parse
https://gopkg.in/alecthomas/kingpin.v3?go
-get=1: no go-import meta tags ())

[pkg-go] package naming for kingpin.v3

2018-04-16 Thread Martín Ferrari 
I was getting ready to upload this same package, which I did not find
because of the -unstable suffix.

I think this was a bad idea, as now we will need renaming and transition
packages when v3 is finally released... Same issue with the repo name.

Plus, it is not following current practices, like following upstream git
history.

So, unless anybody sees this as a problem, I will take it over with a
package using the v3 name, a repo with that name, etc.
