No-frill version:

* Clone bento::

$ git clone git://github.com/cournape/Bento.git bento

* Bootstrap bento::

$ cd bento && python bootstrap.py

* Clone Waf::

$ git clone https://code.google.com/p/waf/

$ git checkout waf-1.7.13 # waf breaks API regularly, this version works

* Set the WAFDIR environment variable to the base dir of the waf repo you
just created (in your bash_login for example if you're going to build with
Bento often). This is unfortunately needed, Waf is not installable like a
regular Python package::

$ export WAFDIR=ROOT_OF_WAF_REPO
# WAFDIR should be such as $WAFDIR/waflib exists

* Build scipy with Bento::

$ BENTO_ROOT/bentomaker build -j 4 # 4 threads in parallel

# or with progress bar
$ BENTO_ROOT/bentomaker build -p
# or with verbose output
$ BENTO_ROOT/bentomaker build -v
