Comment 39 for bug 1960449

golang-1.16 has been blocked in bionic-proposed because it FTBFS in i386, this issue has been tracked in this other bug:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/golang-1.16/+bug/1983742

We were waiting the fix to get accepted to actually move on with the other SRU steps.

Anyway, the validation was done below:
