 > We previously used the latter, why did we have to change that?

 1. the new "install packages with dependencies" means that `./sage -i
 PKGNAME` needs a lot more time (running `./configure` takes some time). In
 particular, [https://groups.google.com/d/topic/sage-
 devel/fQCBuz8-d8k/discussion Simon King complained about this].

 2. `./configure && make` is the standard way to build packages.

 > The rules aren't configurable, they just reflect the package types and
 dependencies.
 That's something which can (and should) change in the future. It would be
 cool to run for example
 {{{
 ./configure --with-system-python --with-package=valgrind --enable-
 check=yes
 }}}
