Installation Issue

[Former user]

I'm having this issue when I install:

$ CXX=g++-4.8 scons PREFIX=$HOME BOOST_ROOT=$HOME/boost-1.57.0-gnu-4.8 SAMTOOLS_DIR=/usr/local HTSLIB_DIR=/usr/local install

scons: *** No SConstruct file found. File "/usr/local/Cellar/scons/2.5.0/libexec/scons-local/SCons/Script/Main.py", line 912, in _main

Help please?

This looks like you are in the wrong directory. chdir to the metabat directory and run

I'm having this same issue, but I am in the metabat directory. Any advice?

Edit: Not quite the same issue, apparently:

scons: *** No SConstruct file found. File "/usr/lib/scons/SCons/Script/Main.py", line 923, in _main

Hey, this issue came up when I was trying to install the binary distribution version. Which, apparently, doesn't need to be installed as it already has executable files. Our computer science undergrad had to explain to me.

Compiling the stable release version, however, did not give problems (as that folder has the SConstruct file).
