Hi:

sage -help says:

...
  -optional     -- list all optional packages that can be downloaded
...


But then I get this

w...@hera:~/texfiles/quotes$ sage -optional
Using SAGE Server http://www.sagemath.org//packages
http://www.sagemath.org//packages/optional/list --> /usr/lib/sagemath/tmp/list
[Errno 13] Permission denied: '/usr/lib/sagemath/tmp/list'



********************************************************************************



Error contacting http://www.sagemath.org//packages/optional/list. Try
using an alternative server.
For example, from the bash prompt try typing

   export SAGE_SERVER=http://sage.scipy.org/sage/

then try again.



********************************************************************************

Doing the suggested export and rerunning the command doesn't help.
Is this a bug?

I'm looking for an easy way to determine the exact number of standard
packages and optional packages for this talk I'm giving in RI in 2 days.
