@Steve: this doesn’t change golang-defaults though, does it?

This is similar to the same process that happened in the past when snapd or any other tool needed a new golang version: add a new source package, don’t change the default for existing source that will still rebuild with the exact same version.

So, basically, no impact on the 2000 packages in jammy which build-depend on golang-defaults. Only new packages, that explicitely build-dep on golang-1.18 will use it.

Do you mind considering a rereview?

@Yuan-Chen: this brings the version in line with the one we have in jammy, for the ubuntu upgrade policy being respected.
