Thanks Michael!

Some specific questions as inline comments, but the big thing to answer is do we want a juju-specific answer here or something generic that this distro can use for other go projects?

The current script is more terrifying than I imagined when we talked about the solution, but does seem to cover the edge cases well enough to be nearly reusable elsewhere. I think we could simplify it a fair by using dependencies.tsv from the github.com/juju/juju tree if we decide this is going to remain a juju-only packaging solution.

I think deb822 in python-debian does the dependency parsing bits we'd need, but I can live with perl.

Anyway, I'm down with trying this approach for juju out in yakkety, but think we need to point in out and ask for feedback from a wider audience of people who may care about how we do golang packaging.
