This error typically arises in the context of variant configuration, where dependencies are used to control the characteristics and options available for a configurable product.
  Cause:
  
  Syntax Error in Dependencies: The most common cause of this error is a syntax error in the dependency logic defined for the component variant. This could be due to incorrect expressions, missing operators, or other issues in the dependency definition.
  Locked Dependencies: The error message also suggests that the dependencies of the component variant are locked, which may prevent changes or updates to the variant configuration.
