Comment (by ncohen):
Hello !

amount.
This is suspicious. As you can see from the branch's diff, it only touches
one file (i.e. sage/misc/package.py) which is not a dependency of anything
as far as I know. I just did a checkout on the branch, and no
recompilation was triggered at all.

supposed to be testing!
This function fixes the three functions `standard_packages`,
`optional_packages`, and `experimental_packages` defined in
`sage/misc/package.py`. The script `sage -standard` script does not call
them.
In order to fix `sage -standard`, it makes more sense to make it call a
Sage function that does the job. Previously, `standard_packages` ran `sage
-standard` and parsed its output: it would be better to have `sage
-standard` call `standard_packages` (without any parsing).
That would require changing the output or `standard_packages`, as
currently it only returns the list of packages without including the
version numbers.
