the current version
+ golang-gopkg-data-dog-go-sqlmock.v1-dev is 1.3.0-1
+ golang-github-data-dog-go-sqlmock-dev is 1.3.0-1

They are the same version, and same code. So it's duplicated.

And as I said before, golang-github-data-dog-go-sqlmock-dev can be
used for package which imports gopkg.in/DATA-DOG/go-sqlmock.v1.
Please just think why it installs a symlink named
/usr/share/gocode/src/gopkg.in/DATA-DOG/go-sqlmock.v1.
And take prometheus-mysqld-exporter package as example, it imports
gopkg.in/DATA-DOG/go-sqlmock.v1 and build fine with
golang-github-data-dog-go-sqlmock-dev.

I don't see golang-gopkg-data-dog-go-sqlmock.v1-dev is in micro's Build-Depends.
