This is a tracker, so as usual, no talking here. If a go package has not been converted to modules, it will fail to build with go 1.16 with an error stating that it cannot find the main module. This is because module aware mode is on by default with this new version of go. The ideal fix for this is for the package to convert to using go modules. In the meantime, it is possible to force go 1.16 to build with module aware mode off by setting the GO111MODULE environment variable to off during the build.
If these keep on piling up, I suggest masking go-1.16 and running a tinderbox against all of its rdeps. I think you can ask toralf, or do it yourself. Would be nice to give maintainers time to port, or just time for you to fix them once all have been found.
