Hi Jean!
I got a similar error two days ago with a pretty basic file, nothing fancy
at all. (To be precise: changing "des2." to "des2. ~ des" produced the
error.)
After switching to the then up-to-date dev-version (from "2.22.0-2" to
"2.23b30375.2e8c87df0f-1" on arch linux) the error went away. Would
backtracing it still help you in any way?
All the best
Christian
