Re: Golang mudules to follow common grouping

[Sharlatan Hellseher]

Hi Guix,

I'm about to prepare split and aggregation of all golag packages

 related to cryptography. The process would be the same as for

 golang-check and golang-web.

In progress:

golang-cryptography

Planned:

golang-compression

golang-build

Regards,

Oleg

Hi,

Part II of the split https://issues.guix.gnu.org/66827

Now we would have
- golang.scm - which would be logically keep on minimal number of packages
- golang-check.scm
- golang-web.scm - in review

Planed
- golang-crypto.scm
- golang-compression.scm
- golang-build.scm - which would include low level 0 dependencies packages.

I found a lot of golang packages in (gnu packages syncthing) which are not 100%
related to syncthing itself, possibly the were left there long ago.

Thanks,
Oleg
