I didn't realize that nobody had updated the README file. You might wish to check out the README.Windows file which I updated right before the 0.96 release, and which contains some instructions generic enough that you might be able to puzzle out how they apply to Linux.
Basically, scons is no longer used in 0.96. Now, you should run qmake, then gmake in the appropriate directories. Those directories being... quackle/ quackle/quackleio/ quackle/quacker/ ...the last of which is what builds the final Quackle binary.
