I was thinking if it would be possible to add a suggestion in the error message to try --changed-deps like it is done with backtracking.

In my case I didn't notice the problem because I am used to append the option when I hit issues like that, but I guess that for other users it could be not obvious to try that 

Thanks a lot!
