Can't build package on Debian 13

This is the output of dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -b when I try:

This is with the both packaged Go that Debian pulls based on dependencies listed (like dh-golang, golang-go, debhelper, golang, etc), and also with Go installed manually as on the website (indeed, just doing the latter doesn't seem to satisfy dpkg-buildpackage, it complains about the missing golang dependency either way). So it doesn't work even when instructions are followed to the letter, and it definitely doesn't work when you just use the distro go package (which, although it's not your preferred method, should fulfill the requirements).

I can't even begin to understand what's going wrong; one would presume the issue is with $GOROOT or $GOPATH, but it seems to just not understand the dependencies are in there at all. Maybe it's an issue with the new Debian version, but either way, some advice would be appreciated.

EDIT: Apparently Debian currently packages hd-idle from this repo (and from the latest release version, too!), but there are some upstream changes I'd quite like, so I'd still appreciate some help.

[adelolmo]

Sorry @EmpressFiona but I'm unable to reproduce your issue.
I recently upgraded to debian 13 too, and managed to build from master after installing the build dependencies.
Could you try with make and report back?
EDIT: please remove the first line of the Makefile before trying, so that the build is as verbose as possible.

[EmpressFiona]

As far as I can remember (since it's been a while), make has never been the problem. It always produces a binary. It's building with dpkg-buildpackage that fails. This is the only output I get from the verbose Makefile (besides the binary):

GOOS=linux GOARCH=amd64 go build

The problem has always been building the package, not building the binary itself. The binary works just fine.

dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -b continues to provide errors as before:

[GRBaset]

I had the same issue on Proxmox 9 (based on Debian 13). This seems to be an environment issue, for some reason dpkg-buildpackage sets GO111MODULE=off, so it doesn't load the modules. A simple workaround is to set GO111MODULE=on before the Go commands in the Makefile: fa96b96. I'm not sure that's the best solution, though.

[mr-magic-it]

I ran into the same problem when working with the original source.
However the deb from the Debian repository worked.
I was unable to pinpoint the exact difference that breaks it, so in the end I just used their debian directory.
Differences are:

• No compat file
• different control, mainly debhelper-compat (= 13)
• rules makefile is quite different

[dallmair]

Has been fixed with the merge of #136.
