Description
This defect is explained in these two issues:
- https://github.com/gin-gonic/gin/issues/1673
- https://github.com/golang/go/issues/29332#issuecomment-448669442
Gin has fixed it's module dep, but this cache middleware is still referencing the problem ugorji release tag. This forces anyone that wants to use go modules with this middleware to fork and fix the mods themselves.
