Composer: how to install `dev` packages in Symfony 2.3?

Question

Trying to install the KnpGaufretteBundle in a Symfony 2.3 project, I\'m having no luck. The problem is:

1. minimum-stability:stable (in compose

Answer 1

just use

"knplabs/knp-gaufrette-bundle": "dev-master@dev" 

if you need the latest dev version

you can also change minimum-stability to dev and add "prefer-stable": true like this:

"minimum-stability": "dev",
"prefer-stable": true,

then composer will always try to find a stable version and if nothing found install dev, so your symfony packages will be still stable. But in your case composer will install v0.1.4 (latest stable of knplabs/knp-gaufrette-bundle), so you need dev-master@dev anyway. prefer-stable is just a hint for you.
