Replying to [comment:4 drkirkby]:
oops, careless renaming of files... It's not just a tar file ;-)
I created gap_packages-4.4.12_2.spkg using sage -spkg (takes looong time
on t2 :))
and then renamed the file gap_packages-4.4.12_3.spkg
And this does not fly, as sage does some checking on the spkg filename...
If you still have that downloaded file, rename it please to
gap_packages-4.4.12_2.spkg and try
spkg -f again.
Otherwise, please download and sage -f

(this is the updated version)

some optional packages don't have one), it would seem
