I think we perhaps need to clarify the role of bootstrap.py then as I have always known it as the entry into using the current HEAD as SCons (which is what H S Teoh is doing as well). Using boostrap.py leads to having all the pyc files not in the checked out repository which is a Good Thing™. Trying to use a shell script instead leads to pyc files being in the checked out source tree, not good at all. -- Russel. ============================================================================= Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 voip: sip:russel.win...@ekiga.net 41 Buckmaster Road m: +44 7770 465 077 xmpp: rus...@winder.org.uk London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk skype: russel_winder
