[Scons-users] Building Scons build error on Windows

[Ibrahim Esmat]

Hi,

I am trying to build scons itself on Windows using the bootstrap.py python script as in the wiki with the command: python bootstrap.py
However, it seems to error at the end when it's trying to unpack the tar.gz file it created. Output below:

F:\Dev\SConsSrc\scons>python bootstrap.py
F:\Dev\Tools\Python\python.exe F:\Dev\SConsSrc\scons\bootstrap\src\script\scons.py
scons: Reading SConscript files ...
doc: SConsDoc failed to import, the error was:
         ImportError: Failed to import either libxml2/libxslt or lxml
     Please make sure that python-libxml2 or python-lxml is installed.
doc: No PDF renderer found (fop|xep)!

     ...creating fake MAN pages.

Mkdir("F:\Dev\SConsSrc\scons\build\test-local-tar-gz")
cd F:\Dev\SConsSrc\scons\build\test-local-tar-gz && tar xzf F:\Dev\SConsSrc\scons\build\dist\scons-local-3.0.0.alpha.20170614.tar.gz
tar (child): F\:\\Dev\\SConsSrc\\scons\\build\\dist\\scons-local-3.0.0.alpha.20170614.tar.gz: Cannot open: Input/output error
tar (child): Error is not recoverable: exiting now

gzip: stdin: unexpected end of file

scons: *** [build\test-local-tar-gz\scons-local-3.0.0.alpha.20170614\SCons\__init__.py] Error 2
scons: building terminated because of errors.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Ibrahim
