I'm in support of more package automation for any case.

With languages like Go, and for that matter I think basically any
modern language with a framework for this and the expectation that it's
normal, that actually might not be too hard. For projects where the
developer picks their own organizational structure for bundling,
though, it's somewhat more difficult to completely automate.

Still, we _do_ have all the source code here. Summershum
(https://github.com/fedora-infra/summershum) could be used to identify
indentical files, bundled in more than one place, but we'd need
something smarter to be able to find multiple versions, forks, and so
on.
