the error message you see comes from
src/bin/sage:

# Prepare for running Sage, either interactively or non-interactively.
sage_setup() {
    # Check that we're not in a source tarball which hasn't been built
yet (#13561).
    if [ ! -z "$SAGE_LOCAL" ] && [ ! -x "$SAGE_LOCAL/bin/sage" ]; then
        echo >&2
'************************************************************************'
        echo >&2 'It seems that you are attempting to run Sage from an
unpacked source'
        [etc.]

----------------
So it looks as if SAGE_LOCAL is set (in /opt/sage/sage) to something
that does not contain
bin/sage. Try starting Sage shell:

$ sage -sh

and at its prompt, do

$ echo $SAGE_LOCAL
$ ls -l $SAGE_LOCAL/bin/sage

(if sage -sh won't start you'd need to do some debugging to dig up $SAGE_LOCAL)
