Revision history [back]

I assume after building the first time you have sourced the setup file in the same shell and later try to build a second time from within the same shell?

Please try to use a separate shell for sourcing the setup. Then rebuilding the workspace in the first shell (which has not sourced the setup of that workspace) should work fine.
