[Scons-users] Storing object files in different directory

This is my SConstruct file

/vik/botoh.sc


path = ['/bin', '/usr/bin', '/home/cdim/Local/gcc-4.9.0/bin']

env = Environment(
         ENV = {'PATH' : path},
         tools=['default','gfortran'],
         FORTRANFLAGS='-ffree-form -g',
         LINK='gfortran',
         LINKFLAGS='-g'
      )

Export('env')
SConscript('lib/endian.si', variant_dir='build/lib')
SConscript('utils/botoh.si', variant_dir='build/utils')

sources = ['lib/endian.f', 'utils/botoh.f']

allobjs = env.Object(sources)

# Get rid of the .mod names
objs = filter(lambda o: str(o)[-4:] != '.mod', allobjs)


I am still stuck on what to put in the SConscript files below
and what to remove from /vik/botoh.sc

/lib/endian.si
/utils/botoh.si


scons -f botoh_b.sc
scons: Reading SConscript files ...
