The patch on that ticket was written in 2011 so there is little hope that it will apply to the most recent version of Sage. Also, it is old enough that it predates Sage's current git-based revision system so would need to be applied manually anyway.
The patch on that ticket was never reviewed (or ever set to "needs review", it seems). But since all it does is to add one function to one class, it should be hard to add the function yourself. This would be a good way into Sage development, if you have not done any before, especially since you clearly have some motivation for it! If you are going to patch a local version of Sage then you will need to make your own clone of the full source distribution first -- see the developers' manual. I note that you were trying to use "sudo", but note that you should never build or run Sage as root. Build it in your own directory.
