What you expected to happen:
build to succeed
How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible):
make on a Ubuntu 18.04 with golang installed as described here
Anything else we need to know?:
it appears make tries to write to /usr/local/go/pkg/linux_amd64/os/user.a
likely related to:
golang/go#24674

You have closed a similar defect: #818
But that doesn't really solve them problem - I have just followed the official golang installation steps
and the problem persists.

Environment:

• Argo version:

when building latest: 3561bff70ad6bfeca8967be6aa4ac24fbbc8ac27

• Linux version :

Ubuntu 18.04 LTS

• Golang version :

[remek][~/go/src/github.com/argoproj]$ go version
go version go1.11.4 linux/amd64

The mentioned golang bug mentioned this is a golang 1.10 issue. Since we need to move to golang 1.11 will use this bug to handle the update.
