The IRC logs show a recent conversation (again) about Sage packaging for Ubuntu. We all know it would be a massive amount of work to update things, which almost no one knows how to do.
@debian experts: Is it easy to make a PPA package for Sage and put it on launchpad? We tell people it's easy enough to just download the binary, unzip, and run it. But it seems just a tad bit easier (and much more comfortable) if someone can just add something to their apt sources and get automatic updates, etc. I know that if I have a choice between installing a package and installing a PPA, I usually use the PPA since it is automatically updated.
