Install for debugging in packages/dependencies

[SemanticBeeng]

Is there a way for lockbox to compile/install the dependencies so that debugging is possible inside any of them?

Specifically interested in --with-keep.source

@SemanticBeeng Not currently, but feel free to add a parameter to the lockfile specification (keep_source: true). The entries in the packages: yml block are directly fed into as.locked_package so you can check for the option there and use it later during install.

Alternatively, keep this issue open and hopefully I or another contributor will get to it soon.

Happy new year!

Thanks Robert. So it would make sense - good to know. Happy new year! and "good will to men" ...
