Hi Thiago!

The best way to get new software written in Go into Ubuntu is through
the pkg-go team in Debian.

You can find it's mailing list here:
https://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-go-maintainers

And instructions on packaging Go project here:
https://pkg-go.alioth.debian.org/packaging.html

Packer is a great tool, and I've been using it myself. There are
already some folks working on getting it into Debian (which would lead
to it entering Ubuntu as well). You can follow those efforts here:

Thanks!
