In a pinch you could probably get away with |
| 8 |
calling :1 /usr/bin/bash-4.4 instead of /usr/bin/bash, and then |
| 9 |
offering no luxuries beyond that, leaving it up to the user to do the rest. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
Then you could test it in ~/ with PATH + Symlink in ~/bin/ ... maybe. |

There would just not be much point, because the real purpose of testing |
| 14 |
4.4 is not for fear of it breaking user experience ( which is a |
| 15 |
problem, but not the primary motive ), but for making everything else |
| 16 |
that runs with bash runs OK. |
| 17 |
|

Maybe you could do some horrible QA Violation like USE=multislot |
| 19 |
which changes the slot from :0 and adds the -suffix at the same time. |

But I still don't think its a useful or good idea. |
