%%%When you append a scene using File->Append, with "Link" unchecked a scene will be imported properly as a new scene. However, attempting the same using the Python API, with bpy.ops.wm.link_append(..., link=False), the scene is still linked. It's as if the link=False is ignored. This only applies to scenes and not other objects/data.%%%
Changed status to: 'Open'
%%%Assigning bug to Campbell. It helps to attach a simple example script that shows the issue to bug reports like these. Also the exact blender version used should be mentioned.
There's is way to link/append without using an operator too:

%%%Just made a small test with rev44097, and all seems to work nice. Can’t confirm that bug.%%%
%%%Perhaps I'm using an older version (2.58-svn37702-1ubuntu1) and it's been fixed already. I will try a more recent build. Thanks!%%%
%%%Alright I tried it in Windows with version 2.61 and it worked fine. However on my Linux Mint computer I have 2.58 installed and the problem persists. I'm guessing that it's been fixed but maybe it's a Linux-only bug? I'm a bit of a Linux newbie and don't know want to mess with apt to get a more recent build but can anyone do a quick check on the latest version in Linux? Try something like "bpy.ops.wm.link_append(filepath="\home\smith\myfile.blend\Scene\Scene", directory="\home\smith\myfile.blend\Scene\", filename="Scene", link=False)" (with different file names of course) and check if there is an "L" next to the scene. Thanks for the help.%%%
%%%That’s already what I did (I’m on Debian testing).
If you don’t want to update (why ? you have some graphical tools above apt, very easy to use, like synaptic…), you can download a Blender Linux release from http://www.blender.org/download/get-blender/ , just decompress the archive somewhere in your user directory, and it will work “out of the box”, without messing with the packages of your distribution.%%%
%%%tried this and it works fine:
import bpy
bpy.ops.wm.link_append(filepath="/tmp/untitled.blend/Scene/Scene", directory="/tmp/untitled.blend/Scene/", filename="Scene", link=True)
please always use last stable release when reporting bugs.

%%%I apologize. I didn't know that you offered complete executables. Thanks for your time.%%%
