We'd like to see sagemath in debian in backports. A PPA in Ubuntu could
serve the same purpose.

More important, no more need for a monolithic binary repackage of sagemath
for Ubuntu. That was a temporary workaround to get automatic updates via
apt.
A new PPA should inherit from backports, not just the simple binary blob of
files repackage I did of the sagemath binary tarball release.

sagemath is now properly modularised in debian, and sage8.0 is in
experimental.

Jan
