Hello.  
We are developing some kibana plugins, and for today after yarn kbn bootstrap getting error while building the plugin for any version of kibana. BUT in dev environment everything is okay: yarn start will start the kibana server with installed plugin.  
Error: (Path prefix is covered by /\*\*\*/ 🙂 )  
yarn build  
yarn run v1.10.1  
warning package.json: No license field  
$ plugin-helpers build  
? What version of Kibana are you building for? 6.4.2  
Task "build" failed:

How do you think, what can it be or what to look for resolving the problem?

I've solved the problem. I don't know what is be, but solution is very easy:

> yarn kbn clean  
> yarn kbm bootstrap  
> Moreover, I want to say that there is one more problem. When I add some external npm dependecies, I get broken project for build. Solution is the same - clean&bootstrap again.
