Comment(by jhpalmieri):
I have a file "database_gap-4.4.12" in SAGE_ROOT/spkg/installed, and I
just did this:
- run "sage -sh"
- cd to SAGE_ROOT/spkg/installed
- run "../standard/newest_version database_gap"
and it didn't find it. It looks to me like "newest_version" searches for
a file ending in ".spkg", and the files in spkg/installed don't match
this. The script SAGE_ROOT/local/bin/sage-spkg does something else to
check for installation:
{{{
if [ -f "$INSTALLED/$PKG_NAME" -a $FORCE -eq 0 ]; then
echo "sage: $1 is already installed"
touch "$INSTALLED/$PKG_NAME"
exit 0
fi
}}}
where $INSTALLED is SAGE_ROOT/spkg/installed, $PKG_NAME is the name
without "spkg", and you could omit "-a $FORCE", I think.
