<p class="MsoNormal">We are facing random failures with Bitbake builds. Bitbake is returning an error even when the operation succeeded on the successful retry.

<p class="MsoNormal">“Setscene” is a bb attempt to use sstate cache.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It says about real task will run instead. Does that mean it tried build locally (it should)?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In all stale cases it fails in this code: <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As can be seen it tries use handle it was given but the file is not valid on remote side already. So system lib returns stale handle.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">How does Bitbake handle the unsuccessful set scene ? will it just go with regular local build or just fail immediately.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This causes us random failures in our builds. Could you please provide insight on whether there is a patch available to address this issue or is this issue is addressed in latest Bitbake versions
