I forget Every. Single. Time. :P

I'm getting used too much to automatic downloads&compiles.
Sorry about that.

Though it makes sense locally, it's still super obscure when you know
the actual source of the error.

Would it make sense to have an error when opening a scope to a

That would catch the submodule missing.
