I'll admit that I have been using a script to auto-generate the ITPs and have not been reading them as in detail as I should be. Ultimately, this was pulled in as a required dependency for another package which I am trying to bring up to date. https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/pwru The latest version of that package was just released a couple months ago and one of it's recent releases pulled in a dependency for github.com/leonhwangprojects/bice which still appears to be maintained, however, even the latest release of that latter package depends on the (now unmaintained) final 2017 release of rsc.io/c2go. It's possible that the newer package from elliotchance is a drop-in replacement, but from first glance, it looks drastically different from the rsc.io version and might be a completely fresh rewrite of it. I ultimately got in a hurry because the current version of pwru in Debian is marked for removal due to FTBFS and I was just trying to pull in the latest release and it's dependencies.
