> To clarify, I do think we need to have some (code) duplication in the archive, at least for a couple of months. I somehow assumed that we already did have the v1.4+ (the google.golang.org/protobuf) code in a separate source package, but apparently we have that only in experimental for now?
google.golang.org/protobuf -> golang-google-protobuf-dev, 1.27.1 in unstable
github.com/golang/protobuf -> golang-goprotobuf-dev, 1.3 in unstable,
1.4 in experimental
github.com/gogo/protobuf -> golang-gogoprotobuf-dev, also 1.3 in unstable
The names look similar to each other 🤦
Thanks, that table is really helpful. I guess I'm then proposing to introduce a new source package (maybe golang-goprotobuf-1.4-dev) that has the code of version 1.4 and is co-installable with golang-goprotobuf-dev.
Would that work?
