I cannot talk for all distress but in Gentoo (and I believe at least arch) I build everything as system packages. Which means that some have to be a particular version or include specific patches. The sagemath library - the python stuff - is then built and installed as a regular python package. Some adjustments are necessary to make it work. https://github.com/cschwan/sage-on-gentoo/tree/master/sci-mathematics/sage
