Error when trying to build tensorflow

I am currently trying to build tensorflow from source, as I will need to use the C++ API. As a first guideline I tried to follow the installing from source guideline at https://www.tensorflow.org/versions/master/get_started/os_setup. However, when I am running:

bazel build --verbose_failures --config=cuda --config opt //tensorflow/tools/pip_package:build_pip_package

I get the following error

ERROR: /home/jendrik/git/tensorflow/tensorflow/core/BUILD:1308:1: Executing genrule //tensorflow/core:version_info_gen failed: bash failed: error executing command

Did anyone else experienced this error and can give a hint on how to resolve it?

Okay I resolved it on my own. The problem was, that I cloned the repository with Eclipse. This seems to cause some issue. Solution: Delete folder, clone it with git in terminal and everything works.
