Ed25519. Public result is different

Question

Using the package https://github.com/golang/crypto/tree/master/ed25519 , I am trying to get the public key for this private key.

This data is taken from http://www.bittorrent.org/beps/bep_0044.html : test 2 (modified with salt)

The problem is that ed25519.Public () will not return the same public key when I passed it using this private key. The golang implementation returns the last 32 bytes of the PVK. But in my test data, this is unexpected.

Code here https://play.golang.org/p/UJNPCyuGQB

package main

import (
    "encoding/hex"
    "golang.org/x/crypto/ed25519"
    "log"
)

func main() {
    priv := "e06d3183d14159228433ed599221b80bd0a5ce8352e4bdf0262f76786ef1c74db7e7a9fea2c0eb269d61e3b38e450a22e754941ac78479d6c54e1faf6037881d"
    pub := "77ff84905a91936367c01360803104f92432fcd904a43511876df5cdf3e7e548"
    sig := "6834284b6b24c3204eb2fea824d82f88883a3d95e8b4a21b8c0ded553d17d17ddf9a8a7104b1258f30bed3787e6cb896fca78c58f8e03b5f18f14951a87d9a08"
    // d := hex.EncodeToString([]byte(priv))
    privb, _ := hex.DecodeString(priv)
    pvk := ed25519.PrivateKey(privb)
    buffer := []byte("4:salt6:foobar3:seqi1e1:v12:Hello World!")
    sigb := ed25519.Sign(pvk, buffer)
    pubb, _ := hex.DecodeString(pub)
    sigb2, _ := hex.DecodeString(sig)
    log.Println(ed25519.Verify(pubb, buffer, sigb))
    log.Printf("%x\n", pvk.Public())
    log.Printf("%x\n", sigb)
    log.Printf("%x\n", sigb2)
}

How to generate the same public key than bep using golang?
