[OT] Re: Your Debian packages




I thought it would have been nice to move to auto* build system before
fixing that bug, but today I'm informed that the upstream will abandon
the entire auto* build system soon and will move to the SCons scheme
which I have no idea what the heck it is.  Thus I'll prepare yet
another 2.32 release soon, with a fix for Bug#229420.  Fair enough?
http://www.scons.org/

"""
*SCons* is an Open Source software construction tool--that is, a next-generation build tool. Think of *SCons* as an improved, cross-platform substitute for the classic Make utility with /integrated/ functionality similar to autoconf/automake and compiler caches such as ccache. In short, *SCons* is an easier, more reliable and faster way to build software.
"""

more info on home page, including "What makes *SCons* better?"

I don't use SCons and have never given it a try, so I can't comment further.
