Edwin,
Check line 41 in your kicad-install.sh file. It should be "REVISION=$STABLE” and STABLE should equal 5054 on line 37.
Previous versions of the kicad-install.sh script set STABLE equal to 4756. However, the kicad-install.sh file in revision 4756 had REVISION equal to TESTING or last:1.
So, the result was that the first time you ran the script you built revision 4756. But, since the kicad-install.sh file was updated as part of the install when you ran again it would update to the latest revision. Each time you ran the script it would go back and forth.
What I do is copy the kicad-install.sh file out of the source tree. That way I can pick and choose the updates for either the stable revision to do work or the testing revision to track what the developers are working on. Michael
