** This will install scons into '''/usr/local/bin/scons'''.
** To compile the C modules, the minfx package must be installed first. Please see below.
** You may still have 'minfx' installation problems when compiling the C modules if multiple Python version are present. So it is recommended to open the '''/usr/local/bin/scons''' file and change the first line from '''/usr/bin/env python''' to '''/usr/local/bin/python''' so that the correct Python version is used. Alternatively you change your PATH environmental variable to have '''/usr/local/bin/''' at the start. SCons is always an issue when multiple Python versions are installed.

The first command updates the locate database, the '''which''' commands show which version of Python and SCons will be executed if '''python''' or '''scons''' are typed at the prompt, and the locate commands will show all installed versions of Python and SCons.
