[pkg-go] Bug#894131: Bug#894131: prometheus-alertmanager: New upstream release 0.14.0 available. Please package and backport to stretch.

[Daniel Swarbrick]

Martin,

I was a bit too hasty in my previous reply. It appears that Alertmanager
compresses and encodes all the web UI assets a Go "blob" (
https://github.com/prometheus/alertmanager/blob/master/ui/bindata.go). Elm
libraries are only needed if you intend to hack / develop the web UI.

I just built a fully functional alertmanager binary from a git clone, with
no Elm or Haskell or Node.js anywhere to be seen on my system. This is why
I mistakenly thought that the aforementioned RPMs had stripped the UI
completely, when in fact it is simply compiled into the alertmanager binary.

Does this simplify things somewhat? I suppose it just leaves the vendored
Go libs as a possible sticking point.

Best,
Daniel
