SConstruct was just an experience many years ago by Jonathan
Brandmeyer and is now irrelevant.

There are three quite different build procedures, for Windows, Mac,
and Linux, each of them detailed in VCBuild/VCBuild.txt, MAC-OSX.txt,
and INSTALL.txt, respectively. And in the Linux case, in addition to
the complex autoconfigure machinery currently used to build the Linux
tarball posted at vpython.org, there is a simple makefile in src/gtk2
intended to give a sense of a basic build stripped to its essentials
and aimed specifically at Ubuntu.
