Yeah, I was about to write the same thing.
We cannot change this without breaking many packages. If we decide to go ahead with this change, it needs to be opt-in. I don't think it's worth changing in the first place. This is how we've always done compat packages. Go projects version import paths (e.g. github.com/containerd/btrfs/v2) and we replace `/` in import paths with `-`. We can document this in the Go Packaging Guidelines. We have more important things to do than renaming a bunch of packages for a second time, and I don't think this change makes sense to begin with. ``

Package won't be broken because they will be superseeded by the replacement with Provides/Obsoletes. Packages will be retired in Rawhide Stable branches won't be buildable anymore, but there won't be any reason to rebuld a retire package. ``

That's not exactly how I interpreted that comment. I left https://pagure.io/releng/fedora-scm-requests/issue/55886#comment-875403. ``

I have no idea why every Go package decided to do something different; I think the guideline has been in place since before Go packages started entering the distribution, but maybe there's a reason why Go can't follow it. I don't know. I would assume some thought was put into the naming, or maybe the Go guidelines already document that the scheme for those packages is different. (I haven't read them.)
If there is no good reason for the difference then it would be nice if Go packages conformed to the same naming guidelines as other packages, **but** it may just be that "changing things now is a massive pain" qualifies as a good reason. If so, someone should simply take that to the packaging committee, explain what has happened, and send a PR for the Go and naming guidelines describing the scheme. (The latter has sections at the end describing issues for specific languages/ecosystems.) ``
