If what you are saying is true, then that is appalling, David. Any

This is assuming that no one upstream does any testing. I think the
focus should be on new code (e.g. the Sage library itself, or code
that's not widely used outside of Sage.)
I think maybe future versions of flint should have no test suite and
no documentation. It would get done three times faster.
;-)
I vote that all packages without a decent test suite be deprecated.

Well, we should make it a requirement for any new packages at least.
Anyway, what of the following would be considered worth doing first,
given I don't have the time or inclination to do them all? All these
lack an spk-check file.
Here's my very quick partitioning (in terms of spkg-check):
Very important:
./blas-20070724/spkg-install // there are NO tests in blas
./cephes-2.8/spkg-install // HAS self tests, but no spkg-check
./cliquer-1.2.p5/spkg-install
