By the way, I see this in aptitude:
--- Installed Packages (2)
--\ Not Installed Packages (2)
--\ golang Go programming language, libraries, and development tools (
--\ main The main Debian archive (2)
p golang-github-xo-terminfo-dev <none> 0.0~git2021012
p terminfo <none> 0.0~git2021012
and
terminfo provides a pure-Go implementation of reading information from the
terminfo database. This provides the infocmp binary from terminfo.

It seems that the package which should be named "golang-github-xo-terminfo"
is mis-named "terminfo" (but that's someone else's bug).
