Comment:
This [attachment:trac_6614-distutils_symlinks.patch patch] alters
`setup.py` so that distutils includes broken symbolic links as it builds a
source distribution of the Sage library. Is this appropriate?
If so, I can add another patch that replaces the `jsmath` directory in
`$SAGE_DOC/common/static` with a symlink and updates the repository
accordingly (i.e., reverses the patch mentioned
[http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/5799#comment:11 here]).
One caveat is that Python's [http://docs.python.org/library/os.html os]
module supports symbolic links only on Unix systems. If we need to avoid
links altogether, we could instead copy jsMath to multiple locations from
its own `spkg-install` script.
