The deadlock happens because the channel is empty, so the receive operation blocks forever.
The second version imports a package that may start new goroutines in its init functions. If so, those goroutines may not be deadlocked, but the main function is still blocked on the receive operation. It can be useful to send SIGQUIT to a blocked Go program to dump the goroutine stack traces to the terminal.
