Hi Reinhard.

Currently ostree-go, commit d0388bd (master HEAD today) fails some tests:

```
=== RUN   TestCommitTreeSuccess
--- FAIL: TestCommitTreeSuccess (0.11s)
    commit_test.go:108: failed to tar populated dir: read
/tmp/otbuiltin-test-179055475/commit1: is a directory
=== RUN   TestCommitTreeParentSuccess
--- FAIL: TestCommitTreeParentSuccess (0.05s)
    commit_test.go:169: failed to tar populated dir: read
/tmp/otbuiltin-test-662857270/commit1: is a directory
```

My first intention was package all skopeo dependencies, then skopeo,
then upload all packages.
Sadly, it showed very ambitious and I can't had the time to do it.

If i remember well, the version from 'Sjoerd Simons' pass all the tests.

Well, if skopeo works with the Sjoerd Simons version,

maybe we don't need to package the original version at all?

 

About the ITP, if help, i can update the version to the one used by
skopeo (currently 56f3a63,
https://github.com/containers/skopeo/blob/master/vendor.conf) and
exclude the failing tests.
I never had upload a package to debian, maybe you can do it from the
repository if time is pressing.

That's not a problem, I'd be happy to help where I can.

I noticed that there is no ITP for skopeo is #880199.

Maybe you could update that ITP with an email about what

dependencies are missing and where we are at packaging it?
