Yay.

They're the compiled packages, not static libraries in the usual sense.
They contain export data and object code for the package. The Go compiler
reads the export data when compiling a package that imports these ones.
(Theoretically I could remove the object code and things would work fine,
but I don't).

I think ~ubuntu-lxc is appropriate, lxd is one of the main reasons for
MIR-ing golang packages :-) That said, it's possible that lxd will stop
depending on this package soon.

~snappy-dev would also be appropriate, I'll try to bully an admin into
signing up.

Why doesn't libgolang-github-coreos-pkg1 have a Built-Using variable?  I

Because it's only built from the source code in this source package. Kinda
the point of shared libraries!
