[Scons-users] [External] Re: Unable to relocate install?

[Sheppard, Raymond W]

Hi,
  I am not sure what you mean.  If you mean something like Docker, that is problematic on a supercomputer.  Singularity pretty much requires our users to be CS minors to use.  We bought a Cray Shasta machine which is supposed to make that easier, but [now] HPE is about a year behind making it work.  If you mean something SCons specific, please point me to the doc.  I am not much more than a SCons novice.  Thanks.
  Ray

Why not use a virtualenv?
That's the recommended solution to your problem..

As an interim measure, until someone looks into this, try the "local
install" version, you just drop it into the directory where you want to
work and run scons.py from there, no "install" step needed.
