Thanks for clarifying.

>>> override_dh_auto_build:

Sorry, I didn’t pick up on the fact that dh_auto_configure is still run
by dh_golang and hence you’ll get the properly set up build
directory. This is okay for now, but in the long run it’d be good to
switch to dh-golang after https://bugs.debian.org/734787 is fixed :).

I went ahead and uploaded the version currently in the
repository. Thanks for your work!
