Welcome to Sage! There was an effort a couple years ago to get Sage as a debian package. It was successful for a while, but then the maintainer left academia and founded a startup, so it hasn't been upgraded.
I think one of the problems is getting a fairly current version of Sage into Debian. It takes quite a while before a new package can make it past experimental. But I'm not really familiar with all of the current issues related to the Debian port. The wiki page http://wiki.sagemath.org/devel/DebianSage looks fairly old; there's also a google group debian-sage that hasn't had any traffic in a year.
