Comment (by jdemeyer):

 Replying to [comment:108 ncohen]:
 > Because you insisted all along on making it a dependency of this ticket
 that Sage should pass all tests with all packages installed.
 Yes, and I am willing to work to make that happen!

 I don't understand why you feel that I am working against you when I feel
 that we are working together. You say you want to improve Sage's
 reliability and that's exactly what I also want.

 The usual way to develop Sage is to merge only tickets which work properly
 (which includes `make ptestlong` passing). I don't like the philosophy of
 "let's just merge this and then fix whatever breaks" that you propose and
 I cannot recall that ever been done in Sage in recent years.

 I think you are mostly being too impatient. Even if this ticket takes a
 while to get merged, that's not a disaster. You are proposing a very
 important change to Sage in this ticket, you cannot expect it to get
 merged in just a day.
