We have decided to bump the requirement to Go 1.7 because it enables subtests and allows dropping backwards-compatibility code. This is in line with Go's support policy. Go 1.6 and earlier no longer receive security updates.

This is a bug that appears when users upgrade to Go 1.10. Our version comparison in the make scripts use textual comparison to check if we have at least Go 1.7 available. However,
"Go1.10"is less than"Go1.7", somakerefuses building with Go 1.10.The PR changes the logic so that instead of textual comparison, we try to parse the minor version number and numerically compare against
7.
