=Advanced troubleshooting= * If you removed one of your programs or changed its name, and <tt>scons install</tt> fails with "Source <tt>oldprogname</tt> not found, needed by target install", and you cleaned everything there was to clean but still get this message, remove <tt>RSFSRC/.sconsign*</tt> * If during <tt>scons install</tt> you get a <tt>DBAccessError : (13, 'Permission denied')</tt> in some reproducible papers, check permissions in your <tt>$DATAPATH</tt> directory. This is where SCons places database ".sconsign" files for its dependencies (according to the rules in <tt>rsf.proj</tt> and <tt>rsf.tex</tt>). * If <tt>scons</tt> or <tt>scons install</tt> fail due to an a bug introduced in a tool you are certain you will not use, a quick workaround for the problem is already built into scons: the <tt>-k</tt> option, which means "keep going". Thus, if you use <tt>scons -k</tt> or <tt>scons -k install</tt>, SCons will not be able to build the failed component, or anything that depends on it, but it will keep going and make everything else that it can.
