Thanks for your interest.

For Go, as you’ve already started reading about, dh-make-golang is the tool
you’ll want to use. It will automatically identify dependencies and which
Debian packages provide them. Just run it and inspect the resulting output
:).

Let me know if you have more specific questions!
