Also, why wont they package these dependencies? Sage is packaged as a standalone source tree. It is not really packaged for any distribution, only distributed as source or binaries, so does not include dependencies via the native package managers. The documentation is constantly being improved, distribution-specific sections could perhaps be linked to from here http://www.sagemath.org/doc/installation/binary.html#linux-and-os-x and seach distritbutions' users could assist with a list of runtime dependencies. I believe the exceptions are the ubuntu PPA on launchpad which allows automatic updates and includes dependencies, and that gentoo and debian are in progress with full native packages.
