Comment (by vbraun):

 Of course every software must be built from source at one point, possibly
 by your distributor ;-)

 The easiest way would probably be to check if `$SAGE_ROOT` is writable by
 the current user.

 In fact, there are four different cases for the two independent choices:
 * Private install (I have write permissions) vs. system-wide (I do not
 have write permissions)
 * Build from source vs. using a pre-built binary
 The issue here only depends on the first choice.
