Description Anno v. Heimburg 2003-12-10 04:12:06 UTC

Hi!Currently, scons-0.0.9 is the stable x86 version in portage. 0.0.9 is very old. It would make sense to bump the stable version up a few releases, preferably 0.94 (latest beta), as a lot of packages that use scons already require 0.9x.Anno.

this is the first time i've heard of scons. any of you guys familiar with it? seeing you've got your names in the ChangeLog for bumping it.

Looking at the ebuild, it needs to use the distutils eclass. Can someone clean it up?
