Monit SRPM rebuild throws error on CentOS 6.10

While rebuilding a monit SRPM generated from the latest commit on the master branch under a CentOS release 6.10 (Final) system I get the following error:

Since the error occurs only on CentOS 6 and not on CentOS 7 I would like to know if this is something you are able to fix or if you’re not supporting CentOS6 due to EOL.
