--- Comment #2 from Robert-André Mauchin <zebo...@gmail.com> ---
1. The -devel package owns /usr/share/gocode/src/github.com, but not
   /usr/share/gocode/src.  That directory is owned by the golang package, but
   the -devel package does not Require golang.  The result is that someone can
   install the -devel package alone and end up with an unowned directory.

2. On a related note, the golang package also owns
   /usr/share/gocode/src/github.com, so if this package should Require golang,
   then it should not own that directory.

I can't do much about that, it is automated by the macros. The Golang package
owns the major distributor directories like github.com or gopk.in, but for the
other ones, we are owning them directly in the -devel subpackages. Hence the
coownership. This isn't a problem per se as the removal of the github directory
will happen when all packages owning it are removed.


3. Should the .goipath file be in the package?  (I know nothing about Go
   packaging, so pardon me if this is a stupid question.)

Yes that is normal.


4. Should LICENSE.md and README.md be in
   /usr/share/gocode/src/github.com/philhofer/fwd when they also appear in
   %license and %doc?

Again it's the macro which picks up all *.md files as part of the file to be
installed. I dont know the rationales for this, I'll ask the macro writer.
