I have the habit of installing a short list of optional spkgs whenever
I build a new Sage version on my machine, and to avoid downloads I
have been keeping the .spkg files locally, and using sage -i
<path>/xxx.spkg

I realise that this will probably not work (or will it?) with the the
git arrangement, e.g. if I have just built Sage from the distribution
tarball sage-6.0.tar.gz.  Is there still a way of keeping optional
spkgs locally?

And surely this should have worked:

$ sage -version
Sage Version 6.0, Release Date: 2013-12-17

$ sage -i database_cremona_ellcurve
Found local metadata for database_cremona_ellcurve-20121022

Invalid checksum for database_cremona_ellcurve-20121022.tar.bz2.tmp

For me, this particular spkg is definitely *not* optional!
