If an unexpected exception occurs in a setscene task, it is currently hidden from the user and not recorded in any logs. This isn't helpful to debug such failures. Change the code so that even in the "silent" or "quiet" task case (setscene tasks), a warning is shown with the traceback unless it was an "handled" exception. This means the failing function can show it's own warning/error instead if it wants to and then raise a handled event.

Bitbake
BitBake is a generic task execution engine that allows shell and Python tasks to be run efficiently and in parallel while working within complex inter-task dependency constraints. One of BitBake's main users, OpenEmbedded, takes this core and builds embedded Linux software stacks using a task-oriented approach.
For information about Bitbake, see the OpenEmbedded website: https://www.openembedded.org/
Bitbake plain documentation can be found under the doc directory or its integrated html version at the Yocto Project website: https://docs.yoctoproject.org
Contributing
Please refer to https://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded for guidelines on how to submit patches, just note that the latter documentation is intended for OpenEmbedded (and its core) not bitbake patches (bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org) but in general main guidelines apply. Once the commit(s) have been created, the way to send the patch is through git-send-email. For example, to send the last commit (HEAD) on current branch, type:
git send-email -M -1 --to bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org

Testing:
Bitbake has a testsuite located in lib/bb/tests/ whichs aim to try and prevent regressions. You can run this with "bitbake-selftest". In particular the fetcher is well covered since it has so many corner cases. The datastore has many tests too. Testing with the testsuite is recommended before submitting patches, particularly to the fetcher and datastore. We also appreciate new test cases and may require them for more obscure issues.
