I was having that trouble, and I'm not exactly sure what happened, but
it magically fixed itself. I just kept updating every day, and I believe
I re-pulled the tree at one point. Again, I don't know why my build
wasn't finishing, it kept throwing errors that weren't true. Regardless,
it fixed itself, sorry I can't be more help.
