I've never "invited" scons to touch directories from my PKG_CONFIG_PATH. Those scons-generated .pc-files can easily end up in the installation directory of some other library. I think scons should use its local directory unless the user explicitly asks otherwise. -- Martin _______________________________________________ DOLFIN-dev mailing list [email protected] http://www.fenics.org/mailman/listinfo/dolfin-dev
