What are the golang- packages about in OpenSUSE? Go doesn‘t support dynamic linking (except for non-go-pieces like glibc or via cgo). Do they contain source-code? Or pre-built .a‘s? Both would have a hard time not conflicting with go‘s own build tooling, right?

I've just installed `golang-github-burntsushi-toml` that should be the well known Go TOML library; asking `rpm -q -l` shows mainly `*.go` files, thus I assume they are mainly used as build dependencies?

Hmm… That makes sense. Though if you are building from source, the only gain you have over regular go tooling is downloading from your favorite mirror rather than github&co. I hope it doesn’t install these source-packages for prebuilt binaries…
