@regisphilibert this looks ... nice: https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/pull/8015/files#diff-fafd1e0cabbe16b230f08528181cfa047e9263d46b0e656996c41ac3d389398eR588

at last! I'm excited!

@anthonyfok this PR will make Hugo >= Go 1.16 only, hope that's not creating too much noise, as these upgrades are to valuable to delay.

@bep Thanks for the heads-up!

The upcoming Debian 11 (bullseye) is about to enter Soft Freeze very soon on Feb 12, and major changes will no longer be allowed (see https://release.debian.org/bullseye/freeze_policy.html), so Go 1.15 and Hugo 0.80.0 will indeed be the final versions that gets released in Debian 11.

So, both you and the Go team have good timing!

Debian package will stay at 0.80.0 and become somewhat stagnant for the next few months until Debian 11 is released, to prevent accidents from happening like during the Debian 10 freeze when Go packages in "testing" and "unstable" were not in sync (my mistakes)...

Maybe I'll try to keep the package up-to-date in debian/experimental.
Or perhaps I should go and fix the Snap package. snapcraft.yaml definitely needs upgrading to v2 or something like that.

@anthonyfok if you think it would be a good idea to push a new Hugo version with the latest JS fixes, we can do that. I'm not sure when Go 1.16 final version is out, but I plan to do a release when that happens. Also to get a Apple M1 build out the door.

@bep Thank you for your kind offer! We are OK on the Debian side: it was easy enough to cherry-pick #8198, and I have already uploaded it to Debian

hugo (0.80.0-4) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Revert "Include a local copy of github.com/evanw/esbuild v0.8.17"
  * Cherry-pick "deps: Update to esbuild v0.8.39" from upstream.
    See https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/pull/8198
    Thanks to Bjørn Erik Pedersen (hugo) and Evan Wallace (esbuild)
    for resolving this issue!
  * Bump dependency on golang-github-evanw-esbuild-dev to (>= 0.8.39)

Oh, wait, I just noticed that you said "JS fixes" (plural), so if you mean all other fixes since 2021-01-01, yes, that would be very nice! Thank you! 🙏

But only if it is not too much trouble for you, especially since it is so close to go1.16 release, and it is always trivial for me to package master (e.g. 0.8.0+git20210201) or cherry-pick more patches, both of which I have done with other Debian Go packages.

If you do decide to push one last go1.15-compatible release, probably a week from now, say, Feb 9 would be ideal. That may allow us to pick up some more fixes or new features (e.g. zsh and fish completion), while giving me enough time to upload Hugo to Debian before the Soft Freeze starting on Feb 12.

Thanks again!

/cc @eclipseo (even though Fedora follows a different release schedule, I thought you might be interested)

No, it was js FIX singular.
