[Scons-users] Install a target multiple times to same location.

Hi

We would like to do

    Install(sometarget,somesource)
    Install(sometarget,somesource)

where sometarget and somesource is exactly the same file in both installs.
Scons will not allow us to do that.

Why do we want to that?

Well, assume you have

    pro1.exe
    pro2.exe
    .
    .
    .
    pron.exe

that require DLL named some.dll.

Now we would like to install pro1.exe and pro2.exe and the associated dll
some.dll in one directory.
The easiest way of doing that is to install pro1.exe and the associeted
DLLs in the right directory.
And so forth. But that leads to multiple installs of the same DLL in the
same directory.

We think Scons can handle this can of magic internally but have quite not
figured out how it does it. Can you help?

Thanks.
