Comment(by mhampton):
Thanks, that's very useful. The biopython optional package has existed
for quite a while - William Stein added it for me in 2006 I think - and so
it predates some of those good newer conventions.
I don't have a lot of time for sprucing it up, so if you want to to take
the lead on that please go ahead!
The test suite is quite extensive, and I agree that it would be good to
have a spkg-check for it. I have experienced some funny issues running
the tests, with some path-related failures unless I copied the tests into
the sage directory structure. Unfortunately I don't really understand
what causes them. If those path issues are cleared up then everything in
the test suite should pass.
Realistically I won't have time to improve the spkg until mid-November at
least.
