[Scons-dev] pip install scons

Sun Mar 27 19:40:10 EDT 2016

I think when this came up before there was a desire for three method.

1)      Pip install as a primary method. Allow people to depend on it.

2)      RPM, MSI… cases for people that cannot use pip for firewall reasons

3)      Scons local for cases in which people want to install Scons in a more system independent way, such as checking source in internal source control, so it just works with need to install on system.

Supporting 1) correctly allow 2) to work as a side effect of different package outputs as I understand.
I think 3) is needed very much.
I am not sure we have a need to support more than on install directly. I will defer if someone feels this needs to support, however every case I have seen installing one version of SCons is enough. I only ever used more than on version of SCons at a time to help me test stuff in Parts. I could easily have done this with virtual env as well.

One question for the user base would be if anyone uses this ability anymore?
If not, good let's drop it.

I'm all for moving to a pip based install as the primary method, with
scons-local still supported.
Though perhaps single file scons-local would be useful and/or better?

Thoughts?
