[Scons-users] Internal errors on cleanup

[William Deegan]

David,

Did this error occur with previous versions of SCons? Or is it new to 2.3.1?

Hi,

I have recently started using SCons 2.3.1 on Centos 6.5 and I am a big fan.

There is one irritating issue I can't solve though... sometimes (quite often) after a build, there is an error like this:
scons: *** Found dependency cycle(s):

  Internal Error: no cycle found for node BLAH (<SCons.Node.FS.Dir object at 0x2a43910>) in state pending

...where BLAH is actually the name of my variant dir. The build seems to work fine - the variant dir has all the object files in it and there are output libs/bins in a separate output folder as I wanted. But this error still bugs me. I would like to understand it and eliminate it.

I have not been able to reproduce it with a small test case sadly, and obviously I can't share my whole build. Any ideas on debugging it? --debug=stacktrace just showed me where in Taskmaster.py the error arises which I already knew...
