   In the discussion to which jba kindly linked us, a proposal is linked for automating the package path updating associated with major version revs: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/32014. It's not done yet, but could possibly help. I still think 2500 lines of changes for simple version housekeeping on every release is far, far too much, and I'm not so much concerned with using my editor's find/replace function as I am with having to comb through those changes and ensure they were all intentional. Nevertheless, that tool would be an improvement over a manual update, and probably much less error-prone (although documentation e.g. in READMEs and comments would have to be done by hand, still, in all likelihood). Also we'd have cool imports like `github.com/apache/trafficcontrol/traffic_ops/v4-client/v8@v8.2.7` which has a confusing number of embedded versions. Though it may be _literally_ simple to know which version means what, that's still confusing for a human to look at.
