Ooops, sorry, I think this list probably wasn't the ideal place to post this to. 
Reposting to simple-cdd-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org
Rookie mistake, sorry about that. :)

Sorry to bother people but I've been banging my head against the wall trying to fix this all day and haven't got anywhere it seems. 



So the simple-cdd build I'm trying to run is failing. It was working until I made some trivial changes to one of the packages its using. I've tried reverting the changes and rebuilding it again but the problem is prevailing so I'm suspecting something else - I just can't seem to work out *what*. :-/



>From what I can see the key bit is this - it's not building because some folder doesn't exist for some reason.

I've tried to read through as much of the documentation as possible (and have been following pretty flawlessly for a while to be honest) but I seem to have got stuck here. 



Any pointers or suggestions would be gratefully appreciated.



I'm happy to provide more information as requested.



Cheers :)
