[Scons-users] scons 3.0.0 bug: Help() and site_tools

[Bill Deegan]

Clearly lots of repeated paths there, but does it cause any actual
functional issue?

The logic for importing tools is different for 2.7 and 3.5+.
It seems likely you're seeing:
'/path/to/src//site_scons/site_tools',

Once for each tool loaded from site_tools.

Does that sound right?
