[Scons-users] error with gettext (translate) on some systems

[Philipp Kraus]

Hi,

I have reinstalled my Scons version and set Gentoos default python 
version with eselect to the 2.7.
After this, Scons works fine and find the gettext installation. 
I can not determine why this problem exists, I think it can be a 
problem with the two Python version on
the system. IMHO another solution can be a virtuel environment for 
scons like http://pypi.python.org/pypi/virtualenv
