Help with go spec file

[Mark E. Fuller]

Hi all,

I'm fairly new to go and am looking to make a spec file and build 
jsonnet (https://github.com/google/go-jsonnet/, https://jsonnet.org/).

The go2rpm utility has proven very helpful, but there appear to be two 
irregularities with building this package that I don't know offhand how 
to address (including from reading 
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/Golang/).

1) What is the preferred way to ignore (or remove) unnecessary 
BUILD.bazel files? There is one in cmd/ which is obviously not a 
buildable command, and so this results in an error in the naive use case.

2) How should nested  folders in cmd/ be built? Here, again, the basic 
template throws an error since cmd/internal contains no *.go files, only 
a BUILD.bezel file and a nested cmd directory.

Thank you all,
fuller

go-jsonnet is already packaged:

https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/golang-github-google-jsonnet/

If you want to update or extend it, feel free to open a pull request.

You can remove the files in the %prep section for example.

Look at the spec file of the already packaged version. If something is
missing you can add following the example.

Kind regards,
