rm golang-github-traefik-yaegi?



Hi Aloïs, go team,

golang-github-traefik-yaegi was a cool package that Aloïs and me worked on together
to get into the archive back in 2021.

However, yaegi (being a go interpreter) needs to catch up to the go compiler versions
which we upload to unstable. The upstream development is slower than the pace at which
the actual go compiler moves.

It is still stuck to compatibility with go 1.22 version. I struggled during the time
of bookworm release to somehow get it in stable, however it missed the trixie release
due to being incompatible with go 1.24 and it needs non-trivial amount of work to get
it working, and this needs to be done upstream.

Even now there is a github issue asking them to support go 1.24 and the last commit is
5 months back.

With this, I don't think we will ever be able to reliably ship this package.

Do you think it makes sense to go ahead with a removal for the same?
