I totally understand your concern. I’m at least a few backported bug fixes deep and I am concerned the resulting package will have had so many changes applied that it will be a bit of a mess. As a middle ground, I think I can get 0.9.0 patched for now with the intention of uploading a new version once we are out of hot water here. Do you think that is reasonable? I apologize if I didn’t communicate my intentions better here - I emailed pkg-go a while back but I neglected to respond to this bug (oversight on my part, sorry!). Stephen
