Package: golang-google-protobuf
Severity: serious

Though it has been packaged, it's not ready for using.

The current version will generate .pb.go files which requires
v1.4+ version of `github.com/golang/protobuf/proto`.
See the reason at https://github.com/golang/protobuf/issues/1077

Besides, I split the /bin/protoc-gen-go to a separated package.
Now two packages offer /bin/protoc-gen-go:

+ golang-goprotobuf-dev (1.3.x, by src:golang-goprotobuf):
  both /bin/protoc-gen-go and github.com/golang/protobuf/* files
+ protoc-gen-go (1.23.0, by src:golang-google-protobuf):
  only /bin/protoc-gen-go
  Go files google.golang.org/protobuf/* are in golang-google-protobuf-dev

The 1.23.0 version of protoc-gen-go will generate files which import
both google.golang.org/protobuf and github.com/golang/protobuf, and
require 1.4.0+ github.com/golang/protobuf.

Any suggestions how can we move forward are appreciated.

Maybe the easiest way is to wait upstream fixing issue #1077.
