Gazelle: no such package '@com_github_cncf_xds_go//udpa/annotations': BUILD file not found in directory 'udpa/annotations' #104
Description
We are using gazelle to generate bazel bindings to the golang code. The version v0.0.0-20240905190251-b4127c9b8d78 fails with:
bazel run //:{redacted}

The version github.com/cncf/xds/[email protected] works ok. It's regression in the newer versions.
My hypothesis about the root reason: @keith added in #96 a /go/BUILD file.
The file makes gazelle consider this whole subtree as a proper BAZEL project... so suspends gazelle for generating the proper BUILD files in the sub tree... But they are missing there... i.e. there are no proper BUILD files, e.g. in: https://github.com/cncf/xds/tree/main/go/udpa/annotations.
Can we make it either proper bazel project with gazelle generated BUILD targets...
or rollback the BUILD file in the subtree at all ?
