[pkg-go] Go package and executables in PATH

[pkgoyq.xpt at neverbox.com]

I just installed golang-1.8-go to my Ubuntu 17.04 and noticed that I don't
have go in PATH:

$ apt-cache policy golang-1.8-go
golang-1.8-go:
  Installed: 1.8.1-1ubuntu1
  Candidate: 1.8.1-1ubuntu1
  Version table:
 *** 1.8.1-1ubuntu1 500
        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu zesty/universe amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

$ apt-cache policy golang-1.8
golang-1.8:
  Installed: (none)
  Candidate: 1.8.1-1ubuntu1
  Version table:
     1.8.1-1ubuntu1 500
        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu zesty/universe amd64 Packages

$ type go
bash: type: go: not found



Does Debian have such arrangement as well (no Go executables in PATH)
having installed a (minimum) golang-1.x-go package?

Thanks

Tong
