There was a commit recently that seems to have introduced a regression and other problems preventing the ability to run the mender-convert and docker-mender-convert scripts. I have documented it below
[https://tracker.mender.io/browse/MEN-3527](https://tracker.mender.io/browse/MEN-3527)
is anyone else seeing this?

@oleorhagen is looking in to this.
And it even seems there is a [PR](https://github.com/mendersoftware/mender-convert/pull/204) 🙂

@oleorhagen have just tested it with your changes using the same build process that was previously not working and it now all executes correctly. many thanks 😀

have spotted one thing, convert.log probably needs adding to gitignore as if you now run ./mender-convert -h or ./mender-convert -v convert.log ends up in the root of the directory and shows as a git untracked file. Just tested older commit and log file was not created prior to changes
