However, those netnames in the warning messages are nowhere to
be found in the ucf file. Ngdbuild gives wrong signal names in
its warning messages.


Solution 1:

This problem will be fixed in the future release of the software.

What happened here is that the ucf file contains incorrect
netnames in the LOC constraints. They are supposed to be the
names between the IBUFs, IPADs, and OBUFs, and OPADs. But ucf
file uses the wrong netnames. They are the nets that are in the lower level.

To correct this problem, make sure the correct netnames are
used in the ucf file.
