tags 954534 + patch upstream fixed-upstream

thanks

This error appears within the testsuite. It's specific to golang 1.14+
and is already known and fixed upstream [1] in version v1.6.0.

Attached you will find a patch for version v1.2.1 (currently in debian).

While the attached patch will fix this bug it might be a better solution
to package the latest upstream release (v1.6.0) which already contains
the bugfix. However, I've tried to upgrade the package and it failed. I
guess some dependencies needs to be upgraded as well.
