I've been unable to reproduce this over several dozen runs on two
different systems. Looking at the logs from Santiago, it probably won't
be a trivial fix.

Hi. As a team member I'm not happy that the unreproducible tag is
applied to any bug which I report, as I always include a VM offer
to reproduce it. I have been trying to fight what I call
the "it works for me" syndrome that way for years.

The version of golang-github-vmware-govmomi is pretty old, and only
has a single rdep, golang-github-hashicorp-go-discover, which is also
pretty old. Both packages are Go team maintained, and I'm inclined to
think we should just RM these two packages. Thoughts?

Naturally, everybody has to balance the effort of fixing an issue
and how much the package is considered to be useful. I'm not
volunteering to fix the bug, as I don't use the package myself.

If you believe the bug will be difficult to fix and prefer to
remove the package, I have nothing to object. My aim here
is to make sure that the end user of Debian stable can
rebuild any package from source and without failures,
and that's certainly achieved if the package does
not exist in trixie at all.

Thanks.

control: tags -1 - unreproducible

With access to Santiago's VM, I was able to determine a place in the
test code to introduce a small sleep that seems to fix the issue.
Without the sleep, I could be pretty certain of a failure within 10
build attempts, and with the patch I've just run 50 builds in a row
without failure.
