Description Miles Parker CLA 2011-07-29 13:51:45 EDT 
In some cases, Buckminster generates and caches incomplete meta-data for conflicting entries. The workaround is to execute the import and perform tasks in separate build steps.

The proximimal cause of this was attempting to perform a build with multiple conflicting versions of junit. This seems to be the main case where this occurs, see: http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php?t=rview&goto=705189

I have the same problem here, but the mentioned workaround doesn't work for me. I also tried to delete the created .metadata folder, but without success. 
It' s a big blocker for me that I'm not able to run my swt bot tests over the buildsystem.
Have someone an other idea what i could try? or could I help to debug this problem?

Thanks in advance
