+If you not have root access to the machine you are installing on (or do not want to install asap in the default location, then you needs to pass the "prefix" and "moduledir" options to scons. Try something like:
+{{{
+  setenv PREFIX /home/me/mydir
+  setenv ASAPPY /home/me/python
+  scons prefix=$PREFIX moduledir=$ASAPPY
+}}}
+
+This will install the asap startup script in $PREFIX/bin and the python code on $ASAPPY/asap. To run you private version of asap you will need to set the PYTHONPATH environment variable to $ASAPPY/asap. To simplify your life it is recommended you edit $PREFIX/asap and add the lines (changed appropriately) near the beginning of the script:
+{{{
+  PYTHONPATH='/home/me/python/asap'
+  export PYTHONPATH
+}}}
