But you are looking at wrong packages. -dev packages are just sources that 
strictly speaking are not "built" but more like "validated" on build time.

You do not need to re-build source/-dev packages so they do not have Built-
Using header intentionally. What you need to be looking at is arch:any binary 
packages built from go sources involving multiple libraries.

Examples of Golang executables include docker.io, containerd, etcd, grafana, 
runc, acbuild, docker2aci, influxdb, rkt, consul, fleet, nomad, skydns, 
kubernetes-{node|master|client}, etc.

To swallow and follow, whether old doctrine or new propaganda, is a
weakness still dominating the human mind.
