I filed this bug report because I have seem some maintainers fixed the
Go import path mismatch issue in the transition, but they did not
rename their packages, even though I wrote documentation about it.
They still keep their Go Application build-depends on the legacy -dev
packages. This makes the transition done half way and they need to do
the transition work again later.

I think we do need somehow to hint the maintainers ASAP to also rename
the package to match the Go import path so we do not have to check
anad tell them to fix their package twice.

The `dh-go` still not completely impletemented for all cases to build
module-aware builds yet(I have found a issue to build google-cloud
packages). I'm afraid adding the checks to fail the builds in `dh-go`
will probably complex the impletemention for fully module-aware builds
in dh-go.

I already can imagine what a mess will be if we have to live without
the check in this transition.
