.SH "NAME"
dh_golang \- Generates Static\-Built\-Using substvar for Go programs
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
\&\fBdh_golang\fR [\fIdebhelper options\fR]
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fBdh_golang\fR is a debhelper program which adds the misc:Static\-Built\-Using
substvar based on the dependencies of the package being built. It uses go list
to determine the packages imported and dpkg-query to find the source package
and version that provided that package.
.PP
\&\fBdh_golang\fR started out in 2013 by generating the misc:Built\-Using substvar,
but it was clarified Debian Policy in 2017 that the Built-Using field was
intended only for license-required dependencies, hence the switch to the new
Static-Built-Using field in 2022.
.PP
For backward compatibility, \fBdh_golang\fR will continue to generate the
misc:Built\-Using substvar until all Go packages have transitioned to
misc:Static\-Built\-Using.
.SH "NOTES"
.IX Header "NOTES"
The best way to invoke \fBdh_golang\fR is by adding \fBdh-sequence-golang\fR to the
package build dependencies and using \fBdh\fR or by using \fBdh \-\-with=golang\fR.
