I agree that compiling sage is not too difficult, and I actually use one of the Ubuntu binaries on a Debian machine, which seems to work fine. But is your argument specific to Debian / Ubuntu? It seems to me that either it is worthwhile to try to package sage for popular distros or it is better to tell everyone to get the appropriate binary from the sage website only. I can see arguments both ways, but I agree that it is not good to have a broken sagemath in the Debian repository without a realistic possibility of being able to package a newer version.
