I wanted to install the latest TensorFlow from source. I pulled the repository, and then ran
bazel build -c opt //tensorflow/tools/pip_package:build_pip_package
I got this error:
ERROR: /home/samuelchin/tensorflow/tensorflow/models/embedding/BUILD:10:6: First argument of load() is a path, not a label. It should start with a single slash if it is an absolute path.

There was a recent change to the TensorFlow BUILD files that causes the dependency on Bazel 0.1.4. This was announced on the [email protected] mailing list, but hasn't made it into the documentation on the website yet.
As you have already discovered, upgrading Bazel to version 0.1.4 should fix this build error.
