Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] PyBombs install maint branch from fresh

[Tim]

One of the problems with allowing this kind of customization is that a 
single set of pybombs recipes is generally intended to represent a fixed 
set of versions / branches as far as configuration management.    
Supporting additional branch combinations is kind of explosive in terms 
of new combinations of supported packages/versions.    That said, master 
is kind of a moving target.   The hope was to have a set of recipes that 
tracks master everywhere for the most part (for developers that want 
this), and then have numbered known good sets of recipes that track for 
instance 3.7.3 or 3.7.4 with known good OOT modules at the time (for 
more stable OOT development or pure users).   However this is a lot of 
time/work to set up and constantly test / release so thus far we haven't 
really been doing that half - The versioned releases are to some extent 
already covered by binary packages -
That said, we can always throw this feature in with a *danger untested 
version combination* caveat ...
