HI, I have put a test version of the java installer for scons at:
    http://glast-tomcat03.slac.stanford.edu:8080/SConsInstaller/
Feedback would be useful, in particular I have not tried to run anything which was unpacked by the installer.
There are a few remaining known issues
a) It would help a lot if we could add a new column to the os table in MySQL which listed the OsType, (for example Windows, MAC OS X, Linux) and OsVariant (32/64). I want to show users only the releases which are compatible with the machine they are running the installer on but it is hard at the moment without building in a lot of assumptions concerning mapping osName to osType.
b) The Java installer tries to not reinstall files if they are already installed. There are a number of issues which make this hard with the new scons files. First the mapping between downloaded file name and unpacked name is not always consistent. For example:
ScienceTools is unpacked into ScienceTools-09-11-00/
Ape (and other externals) unpack into ape/2.3-gl1/
In addition the 64/32 bit and debug/optimized files are difficult to tell apart because they only differ far down the install path. If it was possible to  add some consistent tag file to all of the zip/tar files that would make things easier? Would it be possible for example for all zip/tar files to contain a
<package>/<version>/<variant>/<os>.tag
file?
