After each major changes: - (1) I remove the build folder, I iterate the whole process; - (2) I push to my repo; then - (3) I verify the process on a new fresh system. The issue was found on stage (3). I guess that on stage (1), even a modified process failed, the already installed parts let me believe all was fine. >> ...

On the wrong system, I could not find it.

And on the bad system: the bundle was not found there. So I must search why the log does not report any error and why the back bundle is not there. Maybe it was installed else where. I am searching in the ENV paramaters... I will soon go back...
