to Jsonnet
Is there any particular reason that the Go implementation of Jsonnet doesn't seem to be available in any Debian release?

Since the C++ README says that the Go version is both faster and safer, I would hope it would be at least as easy to install go-jsonnet as Jsonnet.

https://pkgs.org/search/?q=jsonnet&on=summary indicates that Wolfi, openSUSE, and Fedora, have Go packages available, but several other distributions only have C++.  Homebrew and MacPorts have both implementations.
