As I mentioned on IRC the cons against SCons in that article are no cons but incorrectly using SCons or not understanding SCons at all. Like many things in live SCons is like a bazooka: if you handle it correctly it gives you a punch like nothing else but it doesn't prevent you from pointing it at your own feet. If for the debian package improvements are required please tell me and I'll apply the required changes but I will not go back to makefiles. -- Mit freundlichen Grüssen Plüss Roland Game Development and Game Engine Technologies https://dragondreams.ch
