Nightly r12664 issues with Schema->PCB update

[Sebastian Kulik]

Hi guys,
its a long ago I wrote here (mostly all was fine), anyway have issues found.
In r12664 (from yesterday) and some days earlier updating Schena-> PCB (pressing F8 as ussual) is very buggy: some nets will not be updated, if even erased in Schema. Same Project works fine in Stable V5.1.
More over, in latest nightly (r12664) klick-on +delete net not more works, net must be isolated from components (move components away), then klick+move mouse around net-> delete. Pressing F8 NOT remove this net from PCB (even deleted net).
Any ideas?

Best regards from Germany,
Sebastian

NOPE!
on my side (Win10x64) I hit F8 over 10 times- erased net in Schema still be in PCB, even if KiCAD restarted.
Try same project in V5.1: everything is fine.....

Please include your KiCad version information. There was recently a major change to the schematic netlist generator. There were a few bugs which have already been fixed. The last fix was in commit ec2c571a so if your nightly build is earlier than that, please try a more recent build to make sure your issue hasn't already been resolved.

Hi Sebastian,
Can you please either provide the project files you were using when you see this bug, or a simplified test case that reproduces it? It's important to know the exact scenario where the nets are not updated properly in order to find the bug.
Thanks!
