thanks a lot!

Oh, I hadn't thought about reverse-build dependencies, thanks for the reminder!
I successfully built cosign on amd64 also with
golang-gitlab-api-client-go/0.123.0-1 now, but I have not done any runtime
testing except calling 'cosign --help'.

Will you push a debian/0.123.0-1 tag after the package is accepted?  (Or
am I supposed to do that?)

I have no experience with golang package renames.  If cosign is really the only
other user (except glab), I'd guess, that removal would make sense, but I am
still a go-packaging-greenhorn.

That's my fault.  I confused myself by accidentally using an old dh-make-golang
version from stable.  I am going going to fix up.


Does it make sense to finalize packaging of glab 1.52.0-1 (using
golang-gitlab-api-client-go), or should I delay that until the package is
accepted?


Kind regards,
Nicolas
