Comment:
To fix the corresponding permissions, I would have to modify over 20
spkgs. Each of these changes would need review -- the release manager
can't just make those changes. Furthermore, most of those have no effect
on Sage's functioning, since most of the files go away after the
corresponding spkgs are installed. If I look at permissions after I've
built Sage, I see
{{{

and a lot of files related to the moin package. The python library is
clearly not a problem, since the only permission issue is that it's not
writeable. Do the gap files really cause Sage to not work in a multi-user
environment?
I would assert that comment 6 at #1240 should be ignored, because as you
say above, your colleague didn't install Sage properly in the first place.
Please provide other evidence that Sage doesn't function without this
ticket being fixed, and then upgrade this to a blocker again.
