8 years ago Ok, i figured it for everybody else who might have this problem. tomas-abrahamsson/gpb just released a branch two days ago, and added new libraries that relx was unable to work with.. But why give above error, it is not intuitive at all.
Just today, make started failing. i have updated erlang.mk from 2.0.0-pre.1-37-gb7ccb2e to 2.0.0-pre.2-130-gc6fe5ea to see if it would create the release. It still fails. Erlang is Erlang/OTP 18 erts-7.1. Git version is 2.9.0. it is an issue with freshly cloned repository. Not an issue in already existing repository. No vsn/git in the .app file
