  Description     : Nix file formats and store primitives reimplemented in Go

A collection of Go libraries reimplementing parts of the Nix package
 manager. It provides a reader and writer for the Nix ARchive (NAR) format with
 an interface modelled on archive/tar, a parser for .drv derivation files
 together with derivation path and output hash computation, and parsers for
 .narinfo and .ls index files.
 .
 Also included are nixbase32 encoding, store path handling and a reference
 scanner, and generated accessors for the SQLite databases Nix uses. Upstream
 describes the project as experimental.
 .
 This package is a build dependency of syft (ITP 
https://bugs.debian.org/1124819).

I intend to maintain this package within the Debian Go Packaging Team.
