Attached is a trace while compiling using grunt dist

Aborted due to warnings.
The grunt-contrib-less is the latest version and as can be seen, the variable @font-size-base is defined just above and it works.
A similar thread I found https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/brackets-dev/ZpBOFqDc3H8 but no solutions yet.
回答1:
The solution is probably to add extra parentheses to the @font-size-large and @font-size-small lines.
Before:
@font-size-large: ceil(@font-size-base * 1.25); // ~18px
@font-size-small: ceil(@font-size-base * 0.85); // ~12px
After:
@font-size-large: ceil((@font-size-base * 1.25)); // ~18px
@font-size-small: ceil((@font-size-base * 0.85)); // ~12px
I'm guessing this has happened because you, like me, changed @font-size-base, and a bad merge for some reason protected that line, but also the following two lines. (Something changed between 3.0 and 3.1 that means those lines need double parentheses--see @font-size-h1, @font-size-h2, etc.)
