Build fail with a trivial ICESugar-pro design

[zapta]

I am trying to build for ICESugar-pro but all attempts fail during the build with a cryptic error message, even trivial ones. What am I doing wrong? Details below. Also, is there a way to get a proper error message from nextpnr-ecp5?

Icestudio version: 0.11.3w202402070902 (on Max OS 14.3, M2)

Design:

Hi @zapta ! sorry for the delay in the reponse.

I could build without problems:

Check for the latest wip at https://downloads.icestudio.io to assure have the latest toolchain installed:

You need to view 0.9.1 toolchain installed (Develop version of toolchain).

Thanks Carlos.

This is fixed? @zapta

@cavearr, does the zip below contains the correct apio project for this issue? If not, can you sent it to me?

I tested apio build with the project in the zip file below and with the latest apio dev and it works.
