Changes to SCons to address building the ScienceTools outside of slac with some alternate structure for GLAST_EXTERNAL configure data.

 

The condaforge/linuxanvil docker container has the following limitations

  1. No ssh. must use `repoman --remote-base http://github.com/fermi-lat` to perform checkouts
  2. Python 3.6.4 is the default version
    1. Scons 2.3.0 is in conda default channel, but built against py27
    2. Scons 3.0.0 works, but runs on python 3 so our SConstruct and SConscript files don't parse correctly (we use print expressions, they expect print functions)
  3. Use conda environments to build against 2.7 instead
    1. conda create -n py2 python=2.7  git  && source activate py2
    2. pip install fermi-repoman
    3. repoman --remote-base http://github.com/fermi-lat checkout --force --develop ScienceTools master
    4. conda install -y scons=2.3.0
    5. scons --with-cxx=/opt/rh/devtoolset-2/root/usr/bin/gcc 
    6. Must rewrite chunks of allExternals.scons to compensate for conda. Or possibly take the smart choice and add a function in SConstruct_common.scons to handle it there.
