Package: scons
Version: 0.98.2-1
Severity: serious

Hi,

it started with my wondering whether I was hitting a regression in
scons, which you can trigger by trying to build blender in a clean sid
environment.  AFAIUI by reading the diff, the Options->Variables
transition is being initiated, being at the moment mostly transparent,
then it's planned to warn for deprecation, and then to remove that
compat layer completely.

While I'm perfectly OK with the above plan, it looks like that compat
layer just doesn't work.

| scons: Reading SConscript files ...
| ImportError: No module named BoolOption:
|   File "/home/kibi/hack/collab-maint/blender-2.45/SConstruct", line 44:
|     import tools.btools
|   File "/home/kibi/hack/collab-maint/blender-2.45/tools/btools.py", line 4:
|     import SCons.Options.BoolOption
| make: *** [build-stamp] Error 2

You might not be able to reproduce it in a sid environment if you
upgraded scons from a previous version (see my reopening #476976).
Purging and reinstalling the scons package helps, or working in a clean
sid chroot.

I noticed that problem while preparing a security upload for Blender,
that's why I'd like to avoid having to adapt it to the new Variable-way
of doing things in scons, if possible.

Mraw,
KiBi.
