_None_ of those experimental packages work on my system. The first
dependancy, wxPython-2.8.7.1.spkg give the following error (after
taking ages compiling)

sage: An error occurred while installing wxPython-2.8.7.1


The others give various different errors. For instance, I'm
encountering the "allow-hosts" error seen in this thread

http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support/browse_thread/thread/b6345c1fdebd43c4/6814b756af245381?lnk=gst&q=mayavi#6814b756af245381

But I don't even know if it was resolved in that thread or not.

IS there a way of getting any of these packages installed? Should I
update my sage installation to a newer version(currently 4.6.2)?
