Request #34430 has been Rejected by MarsSeed [1]:

Revoking request. Seems I've misunderstood
this tool.

It's not a dependency manager but a
go runtime builder (builds go itself from source).

Seems complicated to use, it has hundreds
of GitHub issues requesting help for basic usage
because of build failures.

Still, for advanced / niche expert usage, this tool
might prove useful to some people.

There are no new release tags since 2014 but
the project itself is still very much alive,
there are lots of commits since that time.

This is not a VCS package but would benefit
from being changed to such.

In the meantime it's better to keep it as it is.
