I disagree. You'd expect a binary release to work out of the box - which is not the case. Plus we'd have to spend more time explaining the workaround, answering the same questions over and over on the ML etc... Fixing this should not be a big deal (i.e. add the gore-x modules for the backends to the ivy deps file).
