Package: golang
Version: 2:1.11~1
Severity: important

Golang and dep are both very out of date. This causes quite a bit of problems
with dep in particular.

If you share repos between debian and non-debian systems (e.g. macos), the
Gopkg.lock file format switches back and forth between trailing commas in the
last item of an array to no trailing commas.

This makes diff/merge thrashing a huge pain.

Please keep both golang and dep at least more or less up to date in a
timely fashion.

The only real workaround is `go get github.com/golang/dep`,
`go install ./cmd/dep`
