Description

Description of the tech debt to be addressed, include links and screenshots

We need to build packages completely from source, including building Python from source via relenv build.

  • Build python during each of the package builds as well
  • Adjust the documentation to reflect any new arguments
  • Separate out the 'build from source' steps so that we don't have to wait for the source builds to finish to start running the tests
  • DO NOT run these source builds on PRs
