This is expected, unfortunately, but as I've argued in past threads
where I've brought up the same issue, we need a few standard patchbots
(at least one for some common Linux, one for OSX, and one for Windows)
that are configured to actually build and install spkgs on tickets
that add/update them.

The downside to this currently is that it's slow--you have to copy the
entire SAGE_ROOT to do it since spkg tickets can leave the original
SAGE_ROOT in an inconsistent state (a problem that will be reduced
once my uninstall mechanism is finally incorporated).  But this is a
worthwhile and necessary price to pay.  Right now we don't really have
that.
