Also, some packages include multiple import paths, usually via a
symlink.  These are often the result of a rename, or of two imports
for the same project (ala, "github.com/foo/bar" and
"gopkg.in/foo/bar.vN"), so it might be worth considering making that a
list instead of simply a single package path.
