That works for the build, but fails later override_dh_auto_install
when d/rules does this:
override_dh_auto_install:
dh_auto_install -- --no-source
...
# run go generate to install assets, but don't regenerate them
GENERATE_ONLY_INSTALL_TO_DESTDIR=$(CURDIR)/debian/adsys go
generate -tags tools $(GOFLAGS) ./...

with:
# run go generate to install assets, but don't regenerate them
GENERATE_ONLY_INSTALL_TO_DESTDIR=/home/ubuntu/git/packages/adsys/adsys/debian/adsys
go generate -tags tools
-ldflags=-X=github.com/ubuntu/adsys/internal/consts.Version=0.8.6~ppa5

I'm not sure what this step is doing, but it looks like the lfs flags
are lost. My other approach (with CFO_FLAGS) worked.

Isn't there a place in the golang buildsystem to inject this $(getconf
LFS_CFLASG)? Imagine users who just git clone that repo and build
adsys manually on armhf, against upstream samba (without the LFS patch
in libsmbclient.h). They would get a build with a 32bit off_t type
which would be broken. A plain upstream samba build will expect an
off_t of 64 bits[1].

Given [1], that samba will always be built with LFS, then I think the
LFS_CFLAGS change should be in adsys, somewhere in their build system.
