Cannot make a division into a property

See original GitHub issue

The following code does not work.

$gutterWidth = 20px; // in another file

selector {
    margin-top: $gutterWidth / 2; //  expectation: "10px", result "20px/2"
}

I’d to do this to have my thing working

selector {
    $selectorMarginTop = $gutterWidth / 2;
    margin-top: $selectorMarginTop;
}

If it’s a normal behavior, is weird…

How can it’s possible I’ve this issue :

>> Error: public/css/template_mappings/wizard/step2.styl:32
>>    28| .conditionDetailsContainer {
>>    29|   @extend ._fill;
>>    30|   borderBoxSizing();
>>    31|   borderStyleAlt();
>>  > 32|   padding: ($gutterWidth/2);
>>    33| }
>>    34| 
>>    35| .conditionList {
>> 
>> cannot perform $gutterWidth / 2

$gutterWidth is completly valid (If I remove /2, it works). It’s declared like this $gutterWidth = 20px

Resolved by replacing sqrt() to math(x, 'sqrt')
