Good afternoon,

I wanted to ask how to solve a build failure. I have tried to follow the [tutorial](https://deeplearning4j.konduit.ai/getting-started/quickstart#apache-maven). Cloned the git repo, changed to the specified directory and ran `mvn clean install`. However, that resulted in errors and failure. Below you can see the log. How do I solve that before I start tweaking around?

@GabiB thanks for posting. Sorry there was a snapshot version that was accidentally merged as part of a preparation for the upcoming release. You should find the examples reverted back to beta7 now.

Let me know if you have any other concerns.

Thank you for such a quick response! I have just pulled the repo and it all works just fine 🙂 Thanks for that!
