Unfortunately, listing golang-github-ubuntu-ubuntu-report-dev is not
sufficient to keep the go tree out of main.  ubuntu-report is itself
implemented in go, which means it statically links all the various go
libraries that it uses.  The closure of main traverses Depends,
Recommends, and also Built-Using - specifically to ensure that
statically-linked code included in a binary in main doesn't go unnoticed
and missed wrt security support.

So there is in fact a tremendous dependency tree that you would need to
MIR in order to ship ubuntu-report in main, as shown at
<http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/component-mismatches.svg>.
I don't think it's realistic to have these dependencies addressed in
time for release, and would recommend withdrawing this MIR for 18.04
(and unseeding the package).

** Changed in: ubuntu-report (Ubuntu)
