Panic running sc install (OSX, against GKE 1.9 cluster)

[fabioy]

Installed sc from the https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/k8s-service-catalog/releases (the osx 1.0.0.beta.2 version). Put all binaries in the path, but it panics when I try to install it on my GKE 1.9.6 cluster:

$  sc check
account: <redacted>
project: <redacted>
zone: us-west1-b
Dependency check passed. You are good to go.

$  sc install
account: <redacted>
project: <redacted>
zone: us-west1-b
Service Catalog could not be installed.

Sorry about that. it seems the issue may be with the cfssl and/or cfssljson binaries which are released by https://pkg.cfssl.org/.

for now the best option is to build cfssl from sources:
go get -u github.com/cloudflare/cfssl/cmd/...

I am going to update our Travis to build cfssl from sources (rather than download the binary release of cfssl)

Thanks for the report, Fabio! The updated Travis build (building cfssl from sources) seems to have fixed the panic. Let me know if you are still having issues. I'll be happy to help.
