Comment (by embray):

 `sage-spkg` contains the following:

 {{{
      # Strip file extension from the archive file and hope (as per
      # automake standards) that this is the same as the directory name
      # inside; move the directory to "src".  (This goes wrong for
      # upstream package archives that have been renamed to appease some
      # other Sage script, such as "latte-int", whose archive is renamed
      # to "latte_int".)
      mv "$(echo "$PKG_NAME_UPSTREAM" | sed
 's/\.zip$//g;s/\.tgz$//g;s/\.tar\.
 gz$//g;s/\.tar\.xz$//g;s/\.tar\.lz$//g;s/\.tar\.bz2$//g;s/\.tar$//g')"*
 src
 }}}

 Maybe this should be redone.  There are a number of ways it might be done
 differently.  One possibility is that it could be made `sage-uncompress-
 spkg`'s job to always extract to `src`.  It could handle checking for the
 top-level directory in the archive and extracting it instead as `src`.
 For those handful of packages (are there any? I suspect probably...) that
 don't have a top-level directory it would create `src` and extract all the
 archive contents into it.
