build packages for which you don't have the proper utilities installed.

This is the sixth beta release of SCons. Please consult the
CHANGES.txt file for a list of specific changes since last release.
variable to 0 (or zipfile.ZIP_STORED, if you import the
underlying zipfile module).
- - The meaning of some of the values of the "mode" argument to
- the SCons.Util.scons_subst() and SCons.Util.scons_subst_list()
- functions have been swapped. The wrapper Environment.subst() and
- Environment.subst_list() methods remain completely unchanged, so
- this should have no external effect. (We've listed the change here
- because it might cause a problem if you're reaching into the SCons
- internals and calling either of these SCons.Util functions directly.)
-
- The "overrides" keyword argument to calls to the Builder() function
used to create new Builder objects has been deprecated and will
be removed in a future release. The items in an "overrides"
Builder(action = 'cp $TDIR/$TARGET $SDIR/$SOURCE',
TDIR = dir1, SDIR = dir2)
+ - The meaning of some of the values of the "mode" argument to

Please note the following FUTURE changes that you may wish to prepare
for:
again can cause unusual errors. These errors can be cleared up by
removing all .sconsign files.
- - On Win32, SCons does not recognize that a target specified as
- (for example) \some\target is the same as X:\some\target (for your
- current volume X:).
-
- - Using a construction variable in its own expansion can cause
- an infinite loop.
-
- - Appending values to construction variables may suffer from type
- errors if, for example, you try to append a string to list or
- vice versa.
-
- When using multiple Repositories, changing the name of an include
file can cause an old version of the file to be used.
- A stray source file in a BuildDir can prevent targets from being
(re)built when they should.
+ - SCons does not automatically rebuild LaTeX files when the file
+ has an undefined reference on the first build.
+
+ - SideEffect() files are not retrieved properly from a CacheDir(),
+ and can lead to a stack trace.
+
+ - Use of --implicit-cache with TargetSignatures('content') can,
+ for some changes, not rebuild a file when necessary.
+
+ - SCons does not currently automatically check out SConstruct or
+ SConscript files from SCCS, RCS or BitKeeper.
+
+ - The Command() global function (specified without a construction
+ environment) is broken.
+
- No support yet for the following planned command-line options:
-d -e -l --list-actions --list-derived --list-where
# version = os.environ['SCONS_VERSION']
#except KeyError:
# version = '__VERSION__'
-version = '0.94'
+version = '0.95'
