Hi Matthias,
Not sure if I am understanding right but I assume you're suggesting
installing from source from github, i.e. using 3.0. That will help me for
testing purposes, thanks!
I was hoping there was some way to achieve what I want in 2.2 though? 2.x
is what's installed most places I do work.
Cheers,
Clare
