My thought is to create an additional PPA called kicad-daily-testing-with-scripting or something, which will be exactly the same as kicad-daily-testing, only with the scripting stuff turned on. Anyone on the current kicad-daily-testing PPA will have to switch PPAs to get the scripting-enabled packages, and I can include a warning on the PPA web page saying that that scripting can be crashy right now.
Honestly, I use my own PPA, and not having a scripting PPA is what's holding me back from playing with the scripting stuff! If this is something you folks think is a good idea, I'll publicize it after I take the few minutes to set it up and test a build.
