It seems that there are permissions issue with the ppa that mixes badly
with Sage behavior.
Because it's the ppa, I guess that "sudo sage -p THE_PACKAGE" is the
good way. But the point is that this command should be run from a
directory that belongs to the group root (this is something weird from
Sage side). You could try (without guarantee)
$ sudo su
# mv THE_PACKAGE /root
# cd /root
# sage -p THE_PACKAGE
# exit
$
If it does not work, could you check wether the permissions for the
repository /usr/lib/sagemath/ and its subrepositories are consistent?

Hello,

is the *good* way. But there is a permission problem related to your
Sage installation. How did you install Sage by yourself? You used the
ubuntu ppa?
I installed sagemath-upstream-binary-full from the ubuntu ppa.
A sided remark: if you are working within the repository /tmp/ with Sage
you will always get into troubles.
I don't think I am doing that.
