At the moment there is a gap between the source tarball offered by github (for 
e.g. pynac) and the tarball you download via sage -i. The difference in content 
is that the archived subdirectory is named pynac-pynac (so it's not compatible 
with spkg-install) and it contains not all files needed to run configure.

My question is would it be worth creating means such that sage -i can directly 
download from github? Does Sage contaain everything for that, ie automake? I 
think downloading directly would be good security-wise. Also, the automake 
files the maintainers add to the tarball before distributing to the buildbots 
might not be the ones you know to work on the target machine.

So what would be needed to automate this?
