I would have to second this. I would rather use scons for a number of
technical reasons, but at the end of the day scons just isn't working and I
am spending more time attempting to build kde then doing any work. Really it
was foolish of us to include scons so early.
Don't recall who said it, but:
It doesn't matter how great product X is over product Y if it doesn't work.
