Hi Mark,

Mark H Weaver <mhw <at> netris.org> skribis:

What about applying your patch that detects duplicate fields, rebuilding
all the .go files, and then resolving any such case by keeping only the
last occurrence of the field?

This is what happens currently anyway so it won’t change the derivations
produced for the faulty packages.
