Issue building auditbeat

[mikemadden42]

Is anyone else having issues building auditbeat in the 6.6 or 6.7 branch? Here is an example of building auditbeat in the 6.6 branch. I do not see this issue in the 7.0 branch.

# git branch
* 6.6
  6.7
  7.0
  master

# mage -v build

Hi @mikemadden42,

Welcome!

I'm able to reproduce this locally on my Mac OS X laptop with the 6.7 branch as well. Incidentally, the issue does not occur on the 7.0, 7.x, or master branches.

I'll post any more information if/when I have it.

Cheers,

Shaunak

The 6.7 branch uses golang version 1.10.8 (see https://github.com/elastic/beats/blob/6.7/.go-version). If you try to build with that, it should succeed. It did on mine:

auditbeat [6.7] $ go version
go version go1.10.8 darwin/amd64

auditbeat [6.7] $ mage build
>> build: Building auditbeat

Hi @shaunak, thanks for the information. You made a great observation that go 1.10.8 was used to build the 6.7 branch. I'll try building with with go 1.10.8.

I've confirmed that I can build the 6.7 branch in a docker container with go 1.10.8. Thanks @shaunak for your help.
