Cool, and it doens't want to install 4 other new packages like
bind-tools does.  [OK, two are just account/group packages, so it's
not quite as bad as it sounds.]

It's a Go package though, so it will quietly install a mountain a
random outdated static libraries from github.

What? No, it will not. Those dependencies are absolutely not installed,
they are only used for building & linking the executable.

I could not agree more that Go is dumb and basically useless for shared
infrastructure, but that train has sailed.
