Comment (by leif):

 While your patch apparently fixes the issue ''with uppercase letters'' in
 upstream tarballs (haven't tested it yet though), I don't like the concept
 of the script, which is pretty upside-down:  Instead of iterating over
 `build/pkgs/*` and taking the name of the upstream tarball from there, it
 does the opposite.

 I'd rather have

   `sage-pkg-checksums [--verbose] [--create|--check|--update] [<package
 name>]*`

 with useful information about missing upstream tarballs, checksum
 mismatches etc., but that's presumably beyond this ticket.

 (And we have a wild mixture of `tr`, `sed`, `shopt -s nocaseglob`, and
 shell parameter expansion in various shell scripts...  The Python script
 `sage-pkg` also seems to be obsolete or at least not yet suited for "new
 style" spkgs.)
