already have an appropriate version of SCons installed on your system,
you can build everything by simply running it:

typing. On UNIX or Linux (using sh or a derivative like bash or ksh):

The SConstruct file is supposed to be smart enough to avoid trying to
build packages for which you don't have the proper utilities installed.
