Build command does not launch

#1

We have a cmake-based build system, and I have a custom build system defined which uses the current file to figure out which target to build. So … ctrl-b launches a build of the library I’m working on, and I can then navigate through compiler errors.

This was working great until several months ago, when the build command would mysteriously not do anything. It’s not as if the launched command hangs – it’s more like I never hit ctrl-b at all.

I attached to the process with strace (I’m on Ubuntu 14.04), but didn’t see anything untoward, except that I don’t see a “pipe2” or “clone” command in the output in the non-working case.

To me, this is an invaluable feature of sublime – any tips would be appreciated.
