 * `grass` - latest stable release (alternatively `grass7`)
 * `grass6` - latest stable release of 6.x series
( * `grass6-daily` - daily build of current 6.x branch, optional)
 * `grass7-daily` - daily build of current 7.x branch
 * `grass-daily` - daily build of trunk

I'm not entirely comfortable with `grass-daily` and `grass7-daily` but it
would be good enough for me.
