But the first error seems to be that $SAGE_ROOT/upstream/ doesn't exist
(because it's a binary distribution of Sage I guess), and after that
error, sage-spkg downloads the legacy TOPCOM spkg, and attempts to
install that.
Oskar, you may try to delete the TOPCOM *spkg* in
/Applications/sage/upstream/, and instead place
http://www.sagemath.org/packages/upstream/topcom/topcom-0.17.4.tar.bz2
there.
Afterwards retry 'sage -i topcom'.
P.S.: But the actual cause of this problem appears to be uppercase
TOPCOM (legacy spkg) vs. lowercase topcom ("new style" spkg); while
'sage -i topcom' presumably would have worked in the first place, 'sage
-i TOPCOM' cannot, as it tries to install the old, incompatible version,
and also pollutes $SAGE_ROOT/upstream/ with it.

It seems that whichever version you have is too old for the

Or is it the other way around? If the spkg-install file refers to
sage/spkg/standard, then presumably TOPCOM needs an *earlier*
version of Sage - that is to say, this optional package needs to be
updated for Sage version >= 6.
