Exactly what the title says. In the first autumn after the founding of the outpost "Driventorches" the caravan shows up, but without a liaison and with the message: "No outpost liaison? How curious..."

Anybody understand what a missing liaison signifies? The "..." makes me feel like this means a nasty surprise is in store...

EDIT:
This is version 0.40.08 if anyone wants to know.

I had this same problem in my fort 40.0.7 tho. I then had the caravan get stuck unloading goods then switched to there are no merchants right now. However they were still sitting on the depot. I deconstructed the depot and the wagon then warped off the map. Bonus was I got all the stuff . Ive started a new fort and will test to see if this is a persistent issue.

It's a debugging message added by Toady to alert the player that something has gone wrong - the only likely "nasty surprise" it could foretell might be the fact that your dwarves are the last surviving members of your entire civilization (since it tried to appoint a liaison from the population of your mountainhomes but failed to find anyone suitable).

Except for all the caravans and migrants who will keep arriving from Armok-knows-where.  Unless that got fixed.
