This is really helpful. I just posted the spkg to our google code page
and then it can be installed with:

MAKE="make -j9" sage -i http://qsnake.googlecode.com/files/openmx.spkg

Well, not now, because I haven't yet updated the g95 problem that
Michael just helped me fix and google code is read only now for
maintenance. :( I think I depend too much on google, when I needed to
send an important email, gmail went down for couple hours and I was
literally stuck and had to use some other webmail.

One more question: -- I am trying to take sage-3.3.tar and strip it
from unnecessary spkgs that I don't need -- seems to me that I can
just delete them? I am learning the dependencies in
spkg/standard/deps, because it's a bit tricky -- as my first attempt I
deleted almost everything and it didn't build, so now I am more
careful. I want to create some minimal build, so that people can take
it (hopefully it will be just couple MB) and then install only
packages that they need. I will be experimenting some more with this,
until I figure it out.
