Comment (by jhpalmieri):
Okay, looks good. What do we do about the files
{{{
src/doc/en/thematic_tutorials/numerical_sage/installation_linux.rst
src/doc/en/thematic_tutorials/numerical_sage/installation_osx.rst
src/doc/en/thematic_tutorials/numerical_sage/mpi4py.rst
}}}
Maybe I can handle the last one:

But the other two files refer to packages which are now archived (`vtk`)
or are archived and almost certainly a bad idea to install
(`python-2.5.1-framework`). We can change each instance of
`install_package` to `sage -i ...` anyway; I'm not sure what else to
suggest.
