Well, nothing at all has been done so far :-) OTOH it's a feature request
so perhaps doing nothing is the right thing...

The issue is making it easier to get the dependencies of golang-*-dev
packages correct. I think my most recent suggestion was that we sort
through the Build-Depends looking for packages that install files to
/usr/share/gocode and copy them all (completely with version and
architecture constraints, if present) to a golang:Depends substvar you
could use in the control file. Does that make sense?
