Comment (by ncohen):

 Yoooooooo Jeroen!

 Shouldn't we expose this as a 'sage option' instead? This patch of yours
 replaces 'sage -i' everywhere, but you can type 'sage -i <something>'
 anywhere while you have to be in Sage's root folder to type 'make
 <something>'.

 I expect that those who would have known how to read to the following
 message

 {{{
 raise TypeError("The optional arb package is not installed. "
                 "Consider installing it via 'sage -i arb'")
 }}}

 may not all know how to react to
 {{{
 raise TypeError("The optional arb package is not installed. "
                 "Consider installing it via 'make arb'")
 }}}

 for they would not immediately know where it should be typed.
