New description:

 In order to notmake this error:
 {{{
 $ ./sage -dev checkout --ticket 15482
 ...
 $ make
 ...
 Attempting to download package mpc-1.0.2
 (builds mpc, ppl...)
 }}}
 you should give more information in the docs on what commands a potential
 reviewer will need, i.e. sage -b, tools to analyze coverage etc.

 The place where to put it:
