If you are reading this in the git repository, the contents

Past official release announcements appear at:

    https://scons.org/tag/releases.html

==================================================================

A new SCons release, 4.6.1, is now available on the SCons download page:

    https://scons.org/pages/download.html


Here is a summary of the changes since 4.6.0:

NEW FUNCTIONALITY
-----------------

- A method, unlink_files, was added to the TestCmd class that unlinks a list of
  files from a specified directory.  An attempt to unlink a file is made only when
  the file exists, otherwise, the file is ignored.


DEPRECATED FUNCTIONALITY
------------------------

- List anything that's been deprecated since the last release

CHANGED/ENHANCED EXISTING FUNCTIONALITY
---------------------------------------

- List modifications to existing features, where the previous behavior
  wouldn't actually be considered a bug

FIXES
-----

- Fix of the --debug=sconscript option to return exist statements when using return
  statement with stop flag enabled
- MSVS: prevent overwriting the SCons environment variable SCONS_HOME with the OS
  environment value of SCONS_HOME in the msvs tool.
- MSVC: Fix the detection of Visual Studio 2015 Express ('14.0Exp') by adding a
  registry key definition and updating the installation root-relative registry value
  at runtime for the location of the VC folder.
- MSVS: Fix the msvs project generation test for MSVS 6.0 to use the correct name of
  the generated project file.
- MSVS: Fix the msvs project generation test scripts so that "false positive" tests
  results are not possible when the initial build is successful and the command-line
  build of the project file fails.

IMPROVEMENTS
------------

- Use of NotImplemented instead of NotImplementedError for special methods
  of _ListVariable class

PACKAGING
---------

- Remove unecessary dependencies on pypi packages from setup.cfg

DOCUMENTATION
-------------

- List any significant changes to the documentation (not individual
  typo fixes, even if they're mentioned in src/CHANGES.txt to give
  the contributor credit)

DEVELOPMENT
-----------

- List visible changes in the way SCons is developed

Thanks to the following contributors listed below for their contributions to this release.
