Hmm looks like it didn't install the dependencies :/

Can you try the following:

./scripts/devtools.sh
make local vendor
make local build

I think this needs to be streamlined a little

The root cause is the version of Go. sort.SliceStable was not added until Go v1.8 (https://golang.org/doc/go1.8#sort_slice)
