[Scons-users] dep defintions

[Hans-Christian Wild]

Hi, in parallel to all general constructive critique about your approach,
the provided code sample should work, given that you tell scons where the
following can be picked from:

'$T/consts/asm-code/consts.asm'

SCons tells you that it is not there and that it does not know how to
produce it. Given that I assume that the problem does not reside within the
code snippet that you have provided...

Looking a bit deeper, I would be curious to learn what your compiler is and
why you can't resolve your "symlink" problem by carefully placing include
directives.
