I had a pull request merged yesterday later afternoon which possibly would address that problem, though hard hard to say for certain. > <cota> [...] you might want to do "git submodule init && git submodule > update" This certainly should not be required - the build system should always take care of that, so it would be considered a bug if it didn't happen.
