After a bit more, incoclusive, chat with the user, it seems that he
somehow started root with a PATH that did not include /usr/sbin where
scons lives. But when he ran clockmare --build he got zero output, and
he then thought it wass done, moved on to later steps, and got even
more confused.
So some more idiot proofing is in order.
