When trying to use SDF to deploy Saved Search(es), I'm getting this error:

An error occurred during custom object load.

Details: This record cannot be deleted, because it is referred to by other records.

It might be important to know the saved searches already exist in the target account and are referenced as script parameters. (Maybe SDF is trying to first delete, then recreate the searches). (I've tried both the Java and Node CLI - both gave me the same message) Does anyone have any input? Thank you in advance!
