I'm in a similar boat; I've been customizing anaconda since the ~7.0 days.
Most of the changes I've made are just text UI changes, and those I can
test from build directory. I haven't touched 8.0 yet, but this is what I
do for 7.3:
To test new screens, text, etc, I do the following:
1. if testing a language other than english, I do:
cd po; make
2. then I just run my textw/myscreen.py script.
I've added the following code at the bottom of myscreen.py to enable testing.
Depending on what args my screen takes, I change this test script
appropriately. I just cut&paste the getCatalog stuff; there might be easier
ways to do it.
