Bug#974934: RFP: golang-github-ncabatoff-go-seq -- sequence Go values to allow sorting them



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name    : golang-github-ncabatoff-go-seq
  Version         : 0.0~git20180805.b08ef85-1
  Upstream Author : Nick Cabatoff
* URL             : https://github.com/ncabatoff/go-seq
* License         : Expat
  Programming Lang: Go
  Description     : sequence Go values to allow sorting them

 This package is intended to allow ordering (most) values via reflection,
 much like go-cmp allows comparing values for equality.
 .
 This is helpful when trying to write Less() methods for sorting
 structures.
 .
 Notable unsupported types include the builtin complex type, channels,
 functions, and maps with non-string keys. Pointers can be ordered if
 their underlying types can be ordered.


This is a dependency for prometheus-process-exporter, which was previously
vendored and got unvendored upstream. I've got the packaging which I'll
provide as an MR once this bug has been filed.

Thanks,
Guillem
