Warning

As part of this installation, non-released versions of bilby, bilby_pipe and parallel_bilby were installed. This is because we are waiting for required code to be merged into the main bilby, bilby_pipe and parallel_bilby code bases. Please see the following merge requests for details:

Similarly, as part of the installation process a pinned version of bbhx is installed. This is because after March 22nd 2024 bbhx required python >= 3.12 which is currently incompatible with bilby.
