Description Dmitri Goutnik freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2019-01-31 12:41:47 UTC 
devel/go-gocode [1] is no longer maintained and has issues working with Go versions 1.10 and later. Go 1.12 is planned to be released during Feb 2019 meaning that 1.9 (the last version devel/go-gocode is known to work reliably with) will go out of support [2].

Please consider deprecating this port or switching upstream to a supported fork [3].

Not really :p

I'm calling this a maintainer timeout now.  Let's mark this as deprecated.
