[pkg-golang-devel] Bug#897013: golang-1.10-go: Package does not install binaries in normal locations

[Benjamin Black]

Package: golang-1.10-go
Version: 1.10.1-3
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

The golang-1.10-go package does not install binaries in a normal location like
/usr/bin. It only installs them in /usr/lib/go-1.10/bin.

Of course I could add that path (/usr/lib/go-1.10/bin) to my PATH, but that
would break on version 1.11.
