Comment (by ncohen):

 > cannot install the old-style package "`database_stein_watkins_mini.p0`"
 (even if you remove `build/pkgs/database_stein_watkins_mini`) because the
 `.p0` is not seen as a version number (and I don't think it should!)

 Okay, so you are just telling me that "only what follows a '-' character
 is a version number" precisely because that's what the script handle
 (which is a bug). And to prove it, you explain to me that "v4" is clearly
 not a version number.

 Can we talk about the list of packages online? You set my patch to
 'needs_work' because 'extcode' is not a standard package according to you.
 But of course, the official list of Sage's package had to be what is
 listed on the mirrors, don't you think? So how can you clain that
 'extcode' is not a standard package when the opposite is stated on our
 website?

 Do you see what's happening here? Double standards. You don't want to fix
 this problem because you are lazy, yet you expect me to magically 'update
 the online list of packages' despite knowing that I have absolutely no way
 to make that happen.
