Ok well I changed branch='master' to branch='DEV' and and
p4base + 'DEV' definitively makes a depot path which makes sense now,
but still I can't actually build anything

This is the twisd.log, but also there I don't see any useful information:

Well if it's unable to check out at all then there must be something
wrong right?
It looks like it's not even trying or otherwise it should say something..
And what if the source code is already in sync?

Should it still makes the build command available or not? (at least
the force one I suppose it should)


Thanks a lot,
Andrea
