This last one is not needed anymore.

So, I did some work on golang-gopkg-flosch-pongo2
<https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-go/packages/golang-gopkg-flosch-pongo2.git/>
(#839748), since I had no answer.
It should be fit for release but I would need someone (from the pkg-go
team) to review and upload.

I also started working on golang-gopkg-lxc-go-lxc.v2-dev (ITP: #883488).

That's the last dependancy for LXD.

So I started looking packaging LXD stable-2.0 as well, and asked to join
the pkg-lxc team (pending approval).

I think the best approach would be to not start from the ubuntu package,
but instead, start from scratch, with dh-make-golang, so that we have
proper initial packaging, and then integrate ubuntu work where needed.


Cheers,
