So I'm going down this path. In debian/rules, I have:
export DH_GOLANG_EXCLUDES := pkg/api pkg/binary pkg/bitmap pkg/bpf pkg/buffer
pkg/cleanup pkg/compressio \
pkg/control pkg/coretag pkg/coverage pkg/crypto pkg/errors
pkg/eventchannel pkg/eventfd pkg/fd \
pkg/fdchannel pkg/fdnotifier pkg/flipcall pkg/fspath pkg/hostarch
pkg/hostos pkg/ilist \
pkg/lisafs pkg/marshal pkg/memutil pkg/metric pkg/p9 pkg/pool
pkg/procid pkg/ring0 pkg/safecopy \
pkg/safemem pkg/seccomp pkg/secio pkg/segment pkg/sentry pkg/shim
pkg/sighandling pkg/syncevent \
pkg/syserr pkg/test pkg/trie pkg/unet pkg/urpc pkg/usermem pkg/xdp
tools \
tools/bazeldefs tools/bigquery tools/checkaligned tools/checkescape
tools/checkinfo \
tools/checklinkname tools/checklocks tools/checkunsafe
tools/constraintutil tools/github \
tools/go_fieldenum tools/go_generics tools/go_marshal tools/go_stateify
tools/nogo \
tools/parsers tools/tracereplay tools/xdp tools/yamltest gvisor/tools
gvisor.dev/gvisor/tools \
src/gvisor.dev/gvisor/tools/xdp gvisor.dev/gvisor/tools/xdp
_build/src/gvisor.dev/gvisor/tools/xdp
export DH_GOLANG_EXCLUDES_ALL := 1
export DH_VERBOSE := 1
But during build it is trying to do something with tools:
r.dev/gvisor/tools/go_marshal/test
found packages parsers (go_parser.go) and main (parser_main.go) in
/home/jgoerzen/work/nncp-debian/golang-gvisor-gvisor/_build/src/gvisor.dev/gvisor/tools/parsers

(you can see I tried everything I could think of to stop the tools stuff
from being installed)
I've pushed the tree I have so far to
https://salsa.debian.org/go-team/packages/golang-gvisor-gvisor so you
can take a look if you like.
Thanks!
