  Description     : manipulate disks, disk images and filesystems natively in Go

go-diskfs manipulates disks, disk images and filesystems entirely in
 Go, without mounting anything and without shelling out to fdisk, gdisk,
 mkfs.vfat, mtools or libguestfs, and so without needing root.
 .
 It can read, create and modify MBR and GPT partition tables, and read and
 write FAT32, ISO 9660 (including Rock Ridge and El Torito boot images),
 squashfs and ext4 filesystems, working either on a whole image or block device
 or within a single partition.
 .
 This package is a build dependency of syft (ITP https://bugs.debian.org/1124819).

I intend to maintain this package within the Debian Go Packaging Team.
