Make skip_repair_examplars skip all examplars?

[arnaudon]

@alex4200 noticed that if we don't have the exemplar morphs in the morph release MM complains even with skip_repair_examplars:

https://github.com/BlueBrain/BluePyMM/blob/master/bluepymm/prepare_combos/create_mm_sqlite.py#L118

maybe we can move this if further up to not even try to load repaired exemplar?

do we know where it complains exactly?

Here: https://github.com/BlueBrain/BluePyMM/blob/master/bluepymm/prepare_combos/create_mm_sqlite.py#L136

Isn't that line 'protected' by skip_repair_examplars?

[arnaudon]

my bad, this one: https://github.com/BlueBrain/BluePyMM/blob/master/bluepymm/prepare_combos/create_mm_sqlite.py#L115

Ok, but so that's a different case, i.e. it checks the 'unrepaired' morph. Imo this morph should always be available, so that we can test a run with the original morphology. The skip_repair_examplars is just there in case the unrepaired examplar is not sure to survive the repair process (which is not guaranteed).

Ah yes, you are right. Indeed, the issue was that @alex4200 tests had missing exemplars, so it was crashing here. I agree we should have these morphs available, but I naively thought that this option would also not require them. All cleared then! Thanks!
