Running ./waf install just after configure fails

I configure waf with gcc5: CXX="g++" CXXFLAGS=" -Wno-reorder -Wno-unused-variable -std=c++11 -include sstream" ./waf configure --prefix=install --build-profile=debug If I run directly: ./waf install I get the following error: === + install /home/teto/ns3off/install/include/ns3-dev/ns3/send-params.h (from src/wimax/model/send-params.h) + install /home/teto/ns3off/install/include/ns3-dev/ns3/bs-scheduler-simple.h (from src/wimax/model/bs-scheduler-simple.h) + install /home/teto/ns3off/install/include/ns3-dev/ns3/ss-service-flow-manager.h (from src/wimax/model/ss-service-flow-manager.h) + install /home/teto/ns3off/install/include/ns3-dev/ns3/simple-ofdm-wimax-channel.h (from src/wimax/model/simple-ofdm-wimax-channel.h) Waf: Leaving directory `/home/teto/ns3off/build' Build failed Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/teto/ns3off/.waf-1.8.16-62b1bd1a26843637845309e604a98bca/waflib/Runner.py", line 150, in task_status return tsk.runnable_status() File "/home/teto/ns3off/.waf-1.8.16-62b1bd1a26843637845309e604a98bca/waflib/Build.py", line 451, in runnable_status ret=super(inst,self).runnable_status() File "/home/teto/ns3off/.waf-1.8.16-62b1bd1a26843637845309e604a98bca/waflib/Task.py", line 311, in runnable_status new_sig=self.signature() File "/home/teto/ns3off/.waf-1.8.16-62b1bd1a26843637845309e604a98bca/waflib/Task.py", line 296, in signature self.sig_explicit_deps() File "/home/teto/ns3off/.waf-1.8.16-62b1bd1a26843637845309e604a98bca/waflib/Task.py", line 349, in sig_explicit_deps raise Errors.WafError('Missing node signature for %r (required by %r)'%(x,self)) WafError: Missing node signature for /home/teto/ns3off/build/src/fd-net-device/ns3-dev-tap-device-creator-debug (required by {task 140243053566352: inst ns3-dev-tap-device-creator-debug -> }) === If I run ./waf build and only then ./waf install, it works perfectly.

I was able to reproduce. Agree that waf should behave like make does and allow to install directly; it seems to work elsewhere this way: http://named-data.net/doc/NFD/0.1.0/INSTALL.html but marking as PATCH WANTED and I don't intend to prioritize since workarounds obviously exist.
