SCons may not properly overwrite your skins directory when you do a "scons install", and it might cause Mixxx to crash on launch.

Mixxx's build system is SCons. To compile Mixxx using SCons, run: $ scons SCons does both dependency checking and building, so it will tell you if you're missing any of the dependencies listed above.
