* upstream: => N/A
Comment:
This should be done by automatically extracting the first line from the
Description section of the SPKG.txt, if it is there. Use a line like this:
{{{
s...@sagemath:~/www-files/packages/optional$ tar xvf
biopython-1.53.p0.spkg biopython-1.53.p0/SPKG.txt
}}}
or better yet, write a Python script using the tarfile module.
I'm currently working on this, and hope to close this ticket soon :-)
