Seems like you are missing mage: [https://github.com/magefile/mage](https://github.com/magefile/mage)

@ruflin -
I installed the mage, and found a new binary added in the Go bin path, but still I see the same error: ☹
```auto
C:\Users\Admin\Go\src\github.com\elastic\beats\metricbeat>make package
C:\Users\Admin\Go\bin\mage.exe
package ran for 1ms
Error: failed to find github.com/elastic/beats/dev-tools/mage in the project's v

I have to confess that most of us develop on OS X and Linux and because of this sometimes the dev tools are not working properly on Windows. But the above more looks like a missing directory which should not be related to the OS. What version did you check out of Github? Are you on master?

Hi @ruflin-
I have cloned @maddin2016 repo ([https://github.com/martinscholz83/beats](https://github.com/martinscholz83/beats))
Its related to the issues [9847](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/metricbeats-windows-metricset-invalid-data/161040/10) and [10060](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/metricbeat-6-6-0-windows-module-breaks-in-win7-server/167589/4)
Since, the issue is with the Windows-7 32 bit, trying to build the package with the same OS configuration.

I see, perhaps it makes sense to rebase on master as lots of things have changed since January.

@ruflin
That worked; could able to built the package now. Thanks so much !
Any timelines, when this PR could move to the Master ([https://github.com/elastic/beats/pull/9847](https://github.com/elastic/beats/pull/9847)) ?.
So, I can just take the snapshot builds from the Jenkins CI. Thanks !

The PR you linked is from the community. Best ping Martin on it on how it looks from his side priority wise.
