Can't compile beats since 7.6.2

Using the same methods I've been using to compile Beats for Pi since v6, I can no longer compile beats.

GOARCH=arm
GOOS=linux
GO v1.13.10

I clone the repo, checkout the commit for the release (5e69e25), cd to the beat I want (eg. metricbeat) and then make.

On my macbook where I have Go and Docker, I use this to build for armv7.

# Make sure $GOPATH/bin is on PATH
export PATH=$PATH:"$(go env GOPATH)"
cd metricbeat
git checkout v7.7.0
make mage
PLATFORMS='+all linux/armv7' mage -v package

The packages are in build/distributions. I install the .deb on my rpi.

ls -la build/distributions/

Thanks! That at least got me started in the right direction i.e. forget trying to keep compiling these things on a Pi 4 and instead just cross-compile on my Mac.

GOOS=linux GOARCH=arm make

Works fine for everything except Packetbeat:
