You need to run 'scons clean' first to remove the *.pyc files and any other temporary files.

Regarding error messages

The "No documentation available!" errors are normal as these are for non-python files which are not part of relax. It's safe to ignore these.

The wxPython indentation errors are also fine. epydoc is scanning the wx module docstrings, but it cannot be stopped.

The "Unable to render Graphviz dot graph" are because the Graphviz software is not available.
Windows binaries are available though (http://www.graphviz.org).
