[Scons-users] scons-4.3.0 bug reading scons-3.1.2 generated .sconsign.dblite

[Jay West]

We are migrating from scons-3.1.2 to scons-4.3.0 and have encountered
incorrect builds.

After building with scons-3.1.2, changing some files, and then running
scons-4.3.0, it appears that scons-4.3.0 cannot read some dependencies from
the DB file.  Instead of error'ing out or ignoring the DB file, it happily
generates an incorrect build.  However, running:

sconsign .sconsign.dblite


gives

TypeError: '<' not supported between instances of 'str' and 'bytes'


Has anyone seen this issue?

Thanks,

Jay
