Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: scons

Create a SConstruct file with the following

# Beginning of SConstruct
env = Environment()
env.Command(['a',
             'b',
             'c'],
            ['SConstruct'],
            'touch a b c && cp {a,c,b} /tmp')

#End of Sconstruct

Run scons

It fails with the following error
scons: Reading SConscript files ...
scons: done reading SConscript files.
scons: Building targets ...
touch a b c && cp {a,c,b} /tmp
cp: cannot stat `{a,c,b}': No such file or directory
scons: *** [a] Error 1
scons: building terminated because of errors.


This works on Fedora and other distros. And it used to work in Edgy/Dapper etc. 
But with a fresh install of Feisty it does not.

Nithin.
