Hi Kentaro,
Thank you for reporting this issue.

No, that is not it. Plenty of existing Go pure library packages (with
no main.go) have been created by dh-make-golang with no issues at all.
The real culprit turns out to be the following code in example/main.go:
import (
"../../notificator"
"log"
)
Relative import path, especially one that refers to a (grand)parent
directory, and such practice is not supported by Go.
It is the "go list github.com/0xAX/notificator/..." command that fails here.
Indeed, other 0xAX/notificator users have run into issue too:
https://github.com/0xAX/notificator/issues
So, it is not a bug in dh-make-golang but in github.com/0xAX/notificator
That said, I'll add in a workaround that retries running "go list"
without the "/...".
This would allow "go list" to avoid such problematic subdirectory.

Please note that Go import paths are case-sensitive.
Please follow how upstream has used uppercase for "AX" in "0xAX", as in:
$ dh-make-golang make github.com/0xAX/notificator
Kind regards,
