Thanks, that works: copy (or link) your local copy of the .tar.bz2 file into upstream/ and then a simple "sage -i package-name" finds it and does the right thing. For the optional spkgs which are still in the old format, is there a meta-ticket somewhere to keep track of which have been converted? Together with some simple instructions, to make it easy for many people to contribute? It would be reasonable for anyone who regularly installs certain optional packages to take on this responsibility. I was lucky since someone else had already done that for database_cremona_ellcurve.
