Sure, the one who the work is the one who decide ;-),
I do like what I read so far about scon, env = Environment() conf = Configure(env) if not conf.CheckLib('m'): print 'Did not find libm.a or m.lib, exiting!' Exit(1) env = conf.Finish() Although this is much longer than something like CHECK_LIB(m), this is clear to whoever read the code. And of course I am free to use a for loop...
I just wanted to give you some info about both softwares. In any case, the KDE experience showed that the biggest step would be to move from autotools. Switching from Scons to Cmake was quite straight forward apparently.
I will read both tutorials and decide. (I do need something better than autoconf for my own projects.) Bo
