Cool. I have one question though: how do you sync the repo to new
upstream? It does not seem to use gbp layout so wanted to know how
exactly you're tracking/pulling the commits?

OTOH, I did take a look at the errors and I see two ways. Either patch
out all the go build related code and use debian's go build toolchain
(which takes care of a bunch of things) or hack around the way upstream
builds to somehow fit out usecase (this is consuming quite some cycles).
Definitely complicated since a bunch of different functionalities have
been mixed with different languages.

Best,
Nilesh
