Bug#674386: supercollider: FTBFS: scons: *** No SConstruct file found.

[Dan S]

Hi -

Thanks for reporting this. The problem seems to be something to do
with dh's automatic invocation of scons to perform cleaning - if you
look at the log you'll see that the package successfully builds
(calling scons on the directory "./common"), but the clean step
invokes scons on the "." directory which is incorrect.

I'd like to mark this as "won't fix" because we're dropping the scons
build system. The latest version of supercollider 3.5.x (which I'm
currently asking debian-multimedia maintainers to upload) uses cmake
instead which is much less mess.

Best
Dan
